Stands on the side of the road with a sign - “got a gas can?” as Teslas drive by and their drivers laugh...

Was it the “run out of gas during rush hour” type of asshole or the “run out of gas during rush hour and coast to a stop in the travel lane” type of asshole?

by the time i passed he was int he grass, but with the way traffic was fucked up, it certainly looked like he could have stopped in a travel lane. to make things worse, the breakdown lane is open for travel during rush hour.

God that sucks, if only cars had some way to tell you when the fuel tank is close to empty...

It happened on a motorway here in the UK. Lady ran out on a 70mph road, in the dark, with a kid in the car.

Thankfully I dont have to drive it much, but the Neon likes to shut off its gauges sometimes giving me no fuel gauge and no trip meter. Even the odometer stops spinning! So I could see running out of gas being a possibility if I dealt with that often lol.

My wife would drive from NYC to Los Angeles on fumes if I let her. It drives me insane.

They should have this in pre-marital counseling “Are you a fill-the-tank-at-1/2-full, or are you a fill-the-tank-below-red-coasting-into-the-gas-station type of person?” It would save a lot of people from a terrible marriage.

Hey, some of us are operating on hope and conjecture here. Fuel senders require a lot of electrons to make it to the correct places without going out to the bar instead and well... that doesn’t always happen.

And sometimes you’re going based on your trip odometer and that requires a lot of little brittle plastic gears to work in harmony and well... they went out to the bar with the electrons, as far as I can tell.

And sometimes fuel likes to go back to the earth, skipping that whole messy internal combustion thing all together. Or maybe it is hanging out with the other two. Who can say?

Not sure what show that is, but he’s driving a 453 smart.

WRT the Polaris...

I drove one this past weekend. Still wouldn’t buy one. The LE5 engine sounds to me, well, tragic. It really needs an LGX V6 with better exhaust.

Just saw this yesterday. Guy was stopped in the far left lane with two officers blocking the lane to allow him to refuel. Traffic had been moving, so this guy ran out of gas, and instead of coasting right to the shoulder, he just stopped in the far left. Infuriating.
