Sounds fair

I read about this in the metro today, and they reported that the car actually had an owner and printed a pic of the "owner" standing there looking gobsmacked at it

I'd have believed it more if they had flattened the RR or 458, but PR is PR

That's one cool mayor.

Westyfield2 · 3 Aug 2011 at 18:45

Though given how quiet it looked in the video, couldn't cyclists just ride round an illegally parked car?

kiel367 · 3 Aug 2011 at 18:49

why cant the mayor go round doing that here? lol

dalin80 · 3 Aug 2011 at 19:00

1 looks like a setup to me

2 if he did that of a few of the expensive cars he will find that he will be shot within a few weeks

The get-tough approach earned praise for Zuokas, who has been better known for his involvement in a bribery scandal while serving two terms as mayor until 2007. Vilnius voters re-elected him in April.

Lithuanians are stupid too by the looks of it. What a flaming hypocrite.
