Sounds like the “smart” thing to do would be to buy an SUV.

I don’t like Smart Cars, but tipping them over seems about as wrong as tipping over a guy’s motorcycle.

It won't matter if Ubama and the scumbags force EVERYBODY into them.

The environmental wackos have been spray painting, keying, and cutting the tires of suv’s for years.

Sounds like payback to me.

Damaging someone else’s property is not cool, no matter how “funny” it may seem because it’s a wimpy looking little car.

Good thing they’re not setting these cars on fire, because I think they’re made of cardboard. I saw one in a parking lot not long ago - a very fat lady got out of it and the car raised up about a foot. I don’t think there was room for anyone or anything else in that car once she got in.

But this will be an international incident, complete a UN committee to pass a law that fines and imprisons the goofballs that do it.

It might take some of the sanctimony out of their drivers. On the other hand, it might increase it too. Just the other day a Prius driver righteously honked at me for passing her, in a passing zone, when she was doing 5 under the posted speed limit.

I remember when it was all the rage to put a VW Beetle between stationary objects. A couple guys could do it. One guy’s Bug was carried into a dorm lobby. lol

When I was i High School in 1959 we had a teacher who drove a Fiat 850, we used to pick it up and put it in the hallways in school.

Damaging someone else's property is called vandalism. Even if the property in question is a Smart car that does nothing but show the world how dumb the owner was to buy one in the first place . . .

Disregard the jerk who actually posted the video and his obvious dislike of Americans... But the video sure tells a story.

How much do you tip a Smart car? 15%? 10?
