1. carjack

   Carjacking is a robbery in which the item taken over is a motor vehicle. In contrast to car theft, carjacking is usually in the presence and knowledge of the victim. A common crime in many places in the world, carjacking has been the subject of legislative responses, criminology studies, and prevention efforts. Commercial vehicles such as trucks and armored cars containing valuable cargo are common targets of carjacking attempts. Carjacking usually involves physical violence to the victim, or using the victim as a hostage. In rare cases, carjacking may also involve sexual assault.

Examples of carJack in a Sentence

1. Jontae Adams:

   The suspect then crashed his vehicle on the shoulder and then attempted to carjack a family's vehicle stopped in traffic.

2. David Mikkelson:

   None of this really makes any sense. First off, if you're looking to jack a car, it's a crime of opportunity. You're not going to put stuff on cars and then sit in the parking lot waiting for those people to come back, because you don't know when they're coming back, why do you need someone to get in their car and then get out again so you can carjack them? Why not just do it when they're entering their car? It makes no sense as a crime scheme.

3. Peter Amelio:

   They’ll bump a car in traffic, make it appear like an accident – and then when you pull over, they’ll carjack you, if a situation like that happens and you’re bumped in traffic and you don’t trust it, know where the nearest police station is and drive there.
