Technically anyone who puts a hand on your car while you're driving it is committing assault, if you can prove they did it on purpose, they can be charged. That said, who cares how many people pull a marty Mcfly on you? What difference does it make as long as they don't hurt themselves on your car?

$30k dollars for a car and it doesn't have it's own automated perimeter defense system? sounds like a ripoff to me. Why on earth woud anyone pay more than 21k$ for a car anyways?

Technically no its not. But yeah, its a car. I have no respect for cars, and dont care what kind of ride you have.

That video was awesome btw.

Other than when they were riding through red lights when there was cross-traffic, I didn't see much wrong with that video. I ride through pedestrians like that all the time here on campus. It's not my fault if you walk across the bike lane without looking.
