I've gotten to use it a few times now, and it does help. It mostly just startles them and can stop them in their tracks, giving you some valuable time to make your getaway. It's not a failsafe as nothing is, but it's just that little extra protection that makes me feel a bit safer out there. It's loud enough that it would also help with motorists if someone doesn't see you, but I haven't had to put it to use for that yet.
