So not even if, say for example, you're a cop in the middle of the street and an indep begins firing at you as you're driving towards them?

yeah i've always heard vdm was ok if someone was shooting at you. Today was the first time i've heard it was never acceptable. Not to mention its probably the #1 killer on the server.

Hitting someone with a vehicle is okay if it’s in self defense. For example, if someone was shooting at you and you are traveling towards them, it would be considered self defense if you hit and killed them.

Well if that's the case how are you going to distinguish between "self-defence" and deliberate VDM. Because the current rule stating "Vehicle deathmatching (VDM), deliberately killing players with a vehicle, is not permitted"  should probably be changed.

Also, this is the first time that I've ever heard that VDM is acceptable for self-defence (on TLX). Apart from a previous rule that allowed indies to purposely VDM anyone which was really fun and should be brought back.

I have always allowed VDM in self defense cases especially when I owned it. You can clearly distinguish the difference between the two. If someone is trying to kill you and you kill them with your vehicle, that’s self defense.
