Hey Coots,
Before you get to that stretch of road, lean out the window and paint a big bullseye on the vehicle next to yours. A sniper couldn't resist such tempting.
Seriously, changing speed/lanes is probably the best thing to do. The sniper has already gotten the range to his "kill zone" so the only other variables are wind & car speed.
Hitting a moving target with accuracy (especially one moving at 60+ mph) is not an easy task ... at least at any serious distance. This guy is probably within a hundred yards of the highway and shooting as the cars are headed towards him. That makes it easier for him to account for speed and determine how far he must lead his "target".
I really wouldn't worry too much about it. Like somebody else said, it's probably easier to get into an accident than be shot. Besides, there's another 50-100 cars driving that same 5-mi stretch of highway when you'd be doing it. I'd prefer to watch out for idiot drivers than worry about some psycho with a gun.
Anyway, I hope you guys have a safe trip.
Take care
BruceD

I thought this thread was "How to avoid a stripper......." and was anxious to read what NOT to do...
You could always come and visit the casinos here in New Mexico... No one is sober enough to shot at ya here!

Turn around and go backwards. The crazy snipper will get confused and shoot somebody else.

Go faster than everybody else. Don't let anybody in front of you. Drive like it's a rented car!

Hmmm... should I feel lucky about the fact that I live in London?
We don't have a sniper in our hands, just general warning that this is the most dangerous city in that sense that terrorist are likely to target London any day now.
But what comes to the avoiding a sniper problem, I have to agree, that nothing is worse than having CH.
Best wishes & PFdays,
