I work at the biggest Trauma center in the state, and first off, let me tell you that you'd have a heck of a time killing, stopping or even badly injuring a grown man with a .22 rimfire. I've seen them flattened out against the skull with the victim not even losing consciousness. I've seen them barely under the skin on a husky guy even shot from close range. I've seen them stopped by several layers of clothing. Same goes for most handguns, except the big boys.
If it was me, I'd carry that gun ready for action, but not levelled. Don't get to close, and stay under cover, or evne out of sight. Then yell "Get the **** away from my car, now." If they run, and they likely will, get as much info about the car and people as you can remember, and file a report with the cops.
If they even flash a gun or advance toward you hide, run, or whatever you need to do. This ain't a movie.
Last resort, empty your entire magazine at center mass.
