Getting in or out of a car
The Survivor gets in or out of a car which is in his Zone......The specific rules about cars are explained in the cars chapter
Cars
Getting in a car costs one Action. You can get in a car only
if its Zone has no Zombies. A Survivor who gets in a car
chooses a spare seat: the driver’s seat or one of the three
passengers’. A car with a driver and three passengers is full:
no other Survivors may enter it.
in the actions summary:Get in OR get out of a car (if allowed by the scenario).
Sorry - have to disagree. The actions list AND the summary both make it clear that getting out costs an action. Looking at the cars section, the focus on "getting in" is there because of the extra rules to do with getting in (which seat, and being full). Because there are no extra rules to do with getting out of a car, it wasn't felt necessary to repeat the global rule.
Cars can be pretty overpowered, once you get the hang of them. And in reality, someone carrying two pistols, a chainsaw, a bag of rice and a pan, is going to need at least as long to gather his possessions and get out, as it took him to get in. Getting in, you can chuck and leap on top - getting out, you need time to unload and pick it all up.
Can't see any justification for getting out taking zero actions, sorry!
