Happened to my mate...around Joondalup?!!

He was on the news and all... They eventually abandoned the car near malaga, stole 1 car seat cover, the dash mat and his uni books (WTF would they need any of this stuff for). Oh and the car smelt like coon for a week.

I've also experienced it around Midland, both times I didnt stop; but doing this is gonna kill them one day, as one of the times they walked out in front of me it was after midnight (I was on the way home from night shift) and I was pretty zombie-like... didnt see this guy on the road at all, my passenger actually pointed them out saying I almost hit them...

The 2nd time it happened was in the afternoon, the guy walked in the middle of my lane and stopped... so as i approached I just changed lanes, and he even threw himself at the car as I drove by?! I still didnt stop (there was a bunch of them on the edge of the road too). I drove straight to the cop shop and told them what happened, and they said it happens a lot...
