Funnily enough this happened in NYC, which is probably the closest we have to a walkable city!

I've not personally attempted it, ^ahem^ but AFAIK it's fairly foolproof —though my sources* also preferred to grind/scuff down the metal bits a little to help improve kinetic transference. Who knows. 😉

Some glass can be surprisingly strong to the extent that it feels wrong and unintuitive.

Not auto glass in my anecdote, but last year I had a medium sized aquarium (30 gallons, ~114 liters) where the bottom got broken. I didn't need to fix it because I had a bigger spare waiting, so I decided to break it apart to more easily package the glass into a safe container for disposal or recycling.

I was able to smack that thing on a wide flat surface with a HAMMER and have it bounce right off. They were really hard swings too. My biggest concern was how freaking loud the hits were, like I was going to disturb a neighbor in their house or make them think they heard a gunshot. My second biggest concern was that I was going to fling glass across the yard using so much force. I believe put it into a large bin or wrapped it in something before I got the courage to turn it up to 11 and break the fucker.

I think I used a 3lb drilling hammer too, which looks like a mini sledgehammer. Heavier than a standard claw hammer, just not very pointy.

Half the manoeuvres he does, like riding through every red light, cutting off pedestrians on crosswalks, riding on the sidewalk, forcing cars to break suddenly, ….?
