The way the law would hold up is the same as any other "intent" law, like attempted murder, attempted agg assault, etc. That in an already verbally confrontational situation or one where someone was using their vehicle in an aggressive or hostile manner, they took it to the next level by exiting their vehicle to engage in assault on you. Or that you would reasonably assume such based on surrounding circumstances.
But that's just a guess.
Aren't you the guy who thinks you can shoot someone in the head for taking a swing at you?
