Tourist: How much to go to central market?
Tuk Tuk: Ten dollar.
Tourist: I'll give you five.
Tuk Tuk : No, no, no. You cheap Charlie.
Tourist: WHACK!!!

Well, for want of a real story here, that's my version. Although, I expect the Tuk Tuk driver said a lot more than that to get whacked.
There must be at least 101 reasons to whack a Tuk Tuk driver.

We've all wanted to do it. Some of us probably have.

But why would they run when they could catch a tuk-tuk.
