Any viable self-defense technique against a garrotte strangulation?

I know that in a modern world with guns and knives, chances of someone trying to strangle me with a garrotte from behind is very small and it's rather a movie cliche, but still, is here any viable self-defense techniques against that? I heard that judo and wrestling helps because it might allow you to get a hold on the attacker and throw him over your back, although you need to be careful to not to crush your own throat by doing that, because garrotte is still wrapped around your neck and tightly squeezing it.

There's 2 most common scenarios with a garrotte:

Scenario 1: standing up position, garrotte attack from behind.

Scenario 2: sitting into the car behind the steering wheel position, attacker is using the garrotte from a backseat behind the driver.
