Default Free carwash ?

So I was at the lights on Tonkin Hwy this afternoon when 2 young aboriginals (10 yrs old and below) came from the rear of my car and start cleaning my front wind screen. I signalled for them to stop but they ignored.

Made a mess out of my front wind screen and knocked on my window and asked for loose change. I proceeded to refuse them and they went to the car ahead of me and did the same. I heard shoutings from the rear but couldn't make out what it was.

I wonder whats going to happen the next time 2 big blokes did the same and I rejected them.

This is new to me. Anyone encountered such situation before ?

I am aware this is common in Malaysia.

My main concern is what happens when you don't pay them. Eg. scratch your car or turn violent etc.

this is common at the morley drive/tokin hwy intersection and morley drive/wanneroo rd intersection.

i give them small change anyway to avoid them damaging my car and run off.

I saw the documentary several years back. Forgot which country was the one that came up with the idea. The flame throwers emit flames both sides of the windows.

Incinerate those people who tries anything funny with your car !

However I'm not sure if any countries actually legalise it.
