There was a story, about a year ago down here that some crazy guy shot the thing with a .22 I believe, which wouldn't have to bad but one shot missed and hit a kid in a passing truck.
Sneaky, I hate that thing.

Didn't some dummy also try to run it over? It doesn't look all that solid, but IIRC it decisively won the collision with his truck.
