Mad Mission 3: Our Man from Bond Street - Sam Hui (1984) - Pottinger Street, Central

Speaking of Pottinger Street, this is where Graves' recorded message decides to self destruct, so in a panic the rickshaw puller pushes the rickshaw down the hill to get away from the explosion. This scene reminded me very much of Jackie Chan's rickshaw scene in Canton and Lady Rose although it's possible this scene itself was a bit of a riff on the one from Revenge of the Pink Panther as Kato rides an out of control Dairy Farm vending bike down the same street.
