I’m not a vandal and I’m not the kind of person who does it, but I *have* wondered if those Smart cars are tippable.
I was next to one on an interstate a few weeks ago and was wondering how stable such a thing could be at 65 MPH.

I had to use a Geo Metro on the highway once. Driving it was like having sex with a sewing machine. That 40 mpg dropped to about 26 when you drove at highway speed, also
