I have to point out something here. Certain vehicles only have 
certain ways for the infantry to get out or not. If the squad leader 
is sitting at the rear ramp with the lever at hand, he's pretty much 
going to have final say about the crunchies getting out or not. Some 
vehicles may just have manually operated doors, but others will be 
more complex.

Also, if the infantry are trained not to get out until told because 
certain things might kill them just as sure (area or point defense 
systems) when close to a vehicle under specific circumstances.

Of course if the track is still under power and still moving at 20mph 
over rough ground, 'debussing' with out the consent of the crew will 
be a bad idea too.

Hey, John. How many infantry riders have been killed (for real) at 
NTC by debussing under fire at the wrong time?
