WTF! My rental car is trying to kill me!

I'm headed home from a business meeting today in my rental car. It's a '09 Chevrolet Impala. Pretty decent highway cruiser really (but boring). While I'm doing 70mph down the highway with the cruise on, I decide to start playing with all the gadgets and doohickeys on the car. Then, the car tells me this:

I had to laugh out loud when I saw it. I was scrolling through the settings for the on board computer at the time and I guess I told the car that I wanted to calibrate the compass. Apparently the car didn't care that I was doing 70 at the time.

Sorry, stupid story but I got a laugh out of it so I thought I'd share. Nothing to see here, move along...

70 mph donuts would be kinda fun.

Dude... at 70 MPH, we need you to be focusing on your driving, not playing with all that crap.

Thank you.

:D

That's what cruise control is for! ;)
