He runs out of fuel then...............

He survives to have another go, fortunately for him he wont get a third chance and he's still alive to perpetuate the species then

Looked like a nice C210 too

And then theres is the granny who just won a USD$2.5 million award against Winnebago.

She buys this really flash one and driving her new toy home down the freeway she decides to try out the new Cruise Control, finding it works a treat she decamps down the back to her new kitchen to make herself a sandwich and coffee.

The good ol Winnie carries on unaided for a bit but eventually camber takes over and into the ditch she goes, granny and all.

The court ruled that Winnebago should have had a placard pointing out the hazards of leaving the wheel whilst in motion with cruise control selected
