Bond takes the booklet and tosses it into the air in front of the car when the PDS is active, letting it track the flying booklet and shoot it into lots of confetti.

Sometimes, one wants to test their sharp shooting skills but rather then head to a "legal" firing range of sorts, why not just use what you have laying around, give it a toss into the air and fire. Said objects can be something that the shooter doesn't like and want to get rid of then and there or just some unimportant junk in general. Or heck, maybe you just like shooting things and got plenty of bullets to spare, as long as the law doesn't get involved, what's a bit of fun? Besides, as long as the object can fly and be shot full of holes, it's just as good as a genuine skeet.
