When you're getting into a car and see someone you want to avoid walking towards you, your best option is a dramatic dive into the backseat where you can crouch down and hide. However, don't get up after what you estimate has been an acceptable passing period. Just lay there. Pretend to be ill, asleep; feign a gunshot wound if you have to. Maybe even wait til you're on the highway before resuming a vertical seated position. Because however long you think is long enough, it is not.
I don't mean you'll sit up too soon and catch his attention as he passes by, resulting in an awkward situation. No, I mean it doesn't matter how long you hide, because your assailant saw you getting into the car from a distance, purposefully walked up to the car, and is now staring you down six inches from the glass when you sit up. There is no escape.
If you think it's bad now, wait til he puts his hand through the open front window.
