Due to popular vote, we house ruled this to not eliminate your own car (for thematic reasons). I prefer the RAW, personally though on game play merits (because if you use this to block a space, it blocks it for yourself as well).
I'll never understand how people can't square this rule away thematically considering the chaos of chases in Mad Max films. I'm with you and like the rule as it is. Having the chopper a hazard to everyone but yourself makes it more destructive and more OP in my opinion. I like that I have to put a little thought into my own cars future movements before I place it.
And experiencing the sting of being taken out by my own chopper is a fun part of the game.
Yeah, Choppers are essentially moving brick walls. That's the intent.
It's easy to say that in high stakes race, that a chopper can accidentally kill it's friendly vehicle via friendly fire.
