Jumping out in front of a high speed moving vehicle?! Are they trying to pull the "get hit by car & getting compensation from the driver" trick thats used in China all the time?

Don't think that trick works here...

In any case, if they were deliberately doing it to car-jack, then I hope they all get struck & die, we don't need a*se holes like these... :P

I'm suprised that it happens in China... Usually Communists don't like that kind of monkey business occuring...

It happens... alot, mainly due to the fact that there is a law in China, where if you hit a person in a vehicle, even if its the other party's fault, you still have to pay them some kind of compensation.

The idea behind that is, since you got a car & you must a semi-rich person, therefore you must pay for the poorer person, & yes, cars in china are mainly bought as a "look at me, I'm rich" kinda of thing, not really used for driving considering most of the time, you'll be stuck in traffic going at <10km/h, its must faster if you just ride a bicycle instead.

Yes I did, but out of pure luck a couple of cops in a camry or something came up behind me just before I was about to drag him up Great Eastern Highway with me :kiss:

      Unpeeling the Orange

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!

      Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.

      The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!

      The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
