Personally, I got a chuckle out of this. Though the europeans are generally pretty nice towards bikers compared to us across the pond.

I got a good laugh myself. I'd never think of leaning on someone's car as a matter of convenience, although I did lean against a car once to save myself from going down during an OhNoGottaUnclipCan'tGoingDownAugh moment.

I think they cut off your hand in Alabama for touching somebody's car.

That was so bad, and yet so good all at once.

That's FUNNY! Around here I don't think I have the nerve to touch someone's car.

I can't view .wmv files on this machine so I have to imagine what the movie might be like .... I'd not have a problem touching or leaning against a "public" vehicle like a bus, or even a taxi or towtruck, but it would be rude to smear up someone's nice Jaguar etc. anyone's private, personal, car.
