Bullets vs. Cars

The New York Firearms Unit, (NYFU), conducted ballistic performance tests on motor vehicles. This study was a continuation of a ballistic study done by Unit Chief Randy Smith and the Firearms Training Unit, (TRDG), several years ago. The results of these tests are of interest to the law enforcement community, and could affect the tactics during a hostile confrontation.
