Some guy had pulled up behind him and started to take his tail light lenses off! That quick!
Best bet..Take the cab.
I can attest to that happening ... I have seen an engine being removed on the side of Cross-Bronx Expressway as I went by in a 35 mph, bumper-to-bumper crawl one early evening on my way though the City. The wheels and tires were already gone.
Nothing is surprzing in that city, especially to a New Yorker ... they just glance quickly as they go by ... "Eh! It ain't mine!"
