One of the more satisfying things I saw once:
A couple of people were riding on the shoulder of the road through the village I lived in. I was driving behind a car full of teenage guys who thought it was a good idea to lay on the horn and rev the engine. Neither horse spooked, but one whirled around and absolutely nailed the side of the car with both hind feet. It was awesome.

Why, oh WHY can't that happen more often!! I would LOVE to have seen it!
I saw something similar, although it was only a one-legged kick and the car drove off at high speed without any apparent problems (I was hoping he's nailed the wheel arch). We stopped, of course, and the poor rider was throwing up in the ditch from nerves and the horse was decidedly uncomfortable on that leg and needed a horse-box. I think he'd probably be OK, though - it was more "ouch, what have I done" than properly lame.
