I bet you wish you could do that too right? It doesn't feel so good... I've got scratch marks on my side mirror and door too :( I hit a motorcyclist who ran a red traffic light with my car, a few months back. I bet you wish you could do that too right?

They're so numerous in KL and Jakarta. I mean I used to ride one in my Uni days, but I never did the stupid stunts these guys did. Come to Vancouver, PB. There's none here! :)) Hate them.

Thank goodness it's not hard enough to make a mark or crack the mirror, but still, these people seriously need to bloody STOP trying to achieve the impossible. So nope, I have no love for motorcyclists. I’ve had those buggers whacking my side mirrors for goodness knows how many times.

The only two accidents my baby car has been involved with happened when motorcyclists crashed into the back, knocking out my rear lights! And then there was this one time a motorcyclist did exactly the same thing that you blogged about up there - I was stuck in a jam, couldn't move, he thought my car was in his way, so he PURPOSELY hit my side mirror with his hand as he yelled something that sounded like "Hey!" and as he rode off, he turned around, glared at me and showed me the finger. I was like, "What the @#(?" Malaysian motorcyclists (the bad ones) deserve whatever's coming to them. Bah. Agreed completely with you!
