    Getting rammed by random people while cruising with my friends.

    Please make non-derby cars non-rammable by other players. We often get rammed by random people while we do some north to south or west to east and vice versa.

    Most of the time it's for players who got dlc and are less than icon rating (not that I don't mind their rating but it does happen often they're beginners with dlc)

    Last cruise we did a guy was not stopping and we had to press F3 to tell him we were gonna report him if he didn't stop, he was fast travelling to our cars to keep up!

    It's so annoying!

    EDIT: Just tried to get a live reward box for my M/X Bike and some guy kept ramming me an hour ago. This is sooo irritating!!

    Welcome to ALWAYS ONLINE.

    There should be an option to turn on/off collisions.

    Also, FYI, reporting those players will result in nothing. If exploiters ARENT going to be punished for abusing Summit scoring, there's no chance for someone scuffing your paint job.

    Yes, thats a good idea actually. Way too many morons out there like to pretend they are agents of chaos.
    Meanwhile try a few tricks. First you can quickly ghost yourself by opening and closing the map when you see incoming collision. Most singe brain cell specimens lose interest in 1-3 failed attempts to ram you. If this doesnt work and you dont want to fast travel away switch to monster truck and ram them back. This will be extra effective since you have numbers advantage, Im yet to see a rammer who doesnt run away to their mommy after being bullied for a minute or so.

    You would think ramming a rammer with a helicopter would send them flying but it seems just as effective as using a monster truck. You surprisingly have better luck using a drag car. Go figure.

    Tried these techniques to discourage a few "singe brain cell specimens" from blocking Summit-related Speedtrap and Escape events.

    Ram a rammer at full speed. What do you get? Stupid position reset wipe screen...

    While it would be nice if the rotor blades of the helicopter launched rammers a few blocks away (like in GTA games), I can see that would quickly work in the opposite direction.
