CHINESE DRIVER STUCK IN CAR THAT WOULDN’T STOP

A Chinese driver was allegedly trapped on the highway for hours after the cruise control in his Chinese-built Haval H6 refused to turn off. The problem started on a highway outside the city of Zhuzhou. The driver, a “Mr. Luo,” claims that the brakes did not work, and the vehicle refused to slow from his set speed of a little over 100 kph (around 62 mph). He kept going at this speed for hundreds of miles until his car ran out of gas. Mr. Luo was stuck in the car for 500 kilometers (roughly 320 miles). During the drive, he called the authorities to alert them of his predicament. The police provided an escort to ensure the driver didn’t hit anybody, but even after engineers from Haval were patched in, nothing could be done until the car’s fuel tank finally ran dry.
* It’s just like that movie “Speed.” Although, at 62 miles per hour, it should be called “Speed Limit.”
* Did he try rebooting?
* If China is anything like America, when he called for help he got somebody in India.
* For tarnishing the image of a Chinese-built car, he was taken away in the middle of the night and no one’s seen him since.
