This is story going around for years, but SUPPOSEDLY someone in an RV actually pressed the “cruise control” button on the stalk, got out of the driver’s seat, and went in the back for a snack. And that was in the transistor and vacuum bellows era. Today, we have much more sophisticated levels of stupidity.

That case actually made it into some of the case law books. The RV company actually CALLED the feature "Auto-Pilot" (my '65 Chrysler 300 did the same), and the fellow who engaged it was Japanese.
