Dude, Where's My Car?

Hong Kong Axiom #49: if your car is missing and shortly thereafter is found fully ablaze, you can be certain it was stolen by a triad thug.

More often than not, the vehicle is used in a battle with a rival triad gang: load up the car with bodies and weapons (knives, choppers, pipes, what have you), locate and intercept the other triad's car, deliver a beatdown, flee the scene, and finally ditch (and then immolate) the wheels.

It occurs to me that after half a dozen sweaty (and probably bloody) men have polluted your car, they've done you a favour by burning it.
