V is for vehicular distress, originally uploaded by qwrrty.

After about another 3/4 mile the car stopped entirely and smoke started coming out from under the hood. Busted transmission line.

Eh, not necessarily. Depends on whether it had been leaking slowly for awhile and on how hot it got in there. Cold day, quick fluid loss, quick shutdown, may not matter much in the grand scheme of things.
