I wonder if it was deliberately done because he really pissed someone off?

I doubt if it was a spur of the moment idea!

Could it be revenge?

That would be my guess. I suspect most Smart car drivers are arrogant, holier-that-thou types.

It's that or the locals just got tired of tipping cows.

That must make it perfectly fine to go out and destroy their cars, right?

And you can rest assured that there are plenty folks out there who think the same of MINI drivers. You wouldnt want to find your car laying on it's side, would you?

Wouldn't happen to me. My car has a "Protected by Smith and Wesson" sticker in the windshield.

I'm not advocating car tipping of any sort, but I laughed out loud when I saw the car on its side

Very glad most of our MINIs have a pretty serious weight problem in comparison. I wouldn't say obese, but, more along the lines of FAT A**
