                    Obviously we all know to turn the key off in these situations...

                    Interesting story if you have time to kill, there's 4 segments i think. Problem is the ford cruise control gets power with the key on and if there is any short or ground the cruise with go wot(up to '95). There are some panthers in the story, including a secret service town car that hit a tree on the white house lawn!

                        As long as you shut if off before you hit anything, you should be fine! haha I just disconnected mine so I don't have any surprises... i don't use my cruise control anyway.

                            I don't think it's a cobra, but it could just be really old? I'll look and get back to you on that

                                Run away cruise control, oh no! Throw it in neutral and turn off the key?
