Every car I have owned at one point or another has been vandalized. I empathize with the owners. Still, it is pretty funny. If we got a point in this country where the worst a bunch of "thugs" would do is flip a bunch of smart cars... I would not mind it.

If all my cars were armored vehicles, I might be able to laugh at it.
But I got a Boxster with a soft top.
Not funny to me.

Nope.

Nobody would be laughing if some punk kids flipped their boxster.

I think this is evolution in progress that we are witnessing.

The "Smart" cars need to take evasive or defensive action on their own and should they be damaged they need to self heal.

I think the next "Smart" car will be the "Turtle" so it can retract all its delicate bits out of harms way into the armoured shell and be able to right itself after being overturned.

The next model up of the "Turtle" will be the "Ninja Turtle" and will get the properties that allow Defensive and Offensive reactions to threats.

Kids nowadays, can't live with them, can't shoot them. Oh wait, I'm in Texas, you CAN shoot them. In fact many Texans would consider it your civic duty. Best to be careful around other people's property in Texas or you stand to get ventilated, and that is just fine by me.

I guess that might be one reason why this is happening in SF, California and not Texas. That and it takes quite a few people to flip over a Ford 450 dually with the extra extended cab and long bed.
