Default "Am I going to make it?"

Wife phones having done 273 miles with 1 bar left on the guage.

She's on the M3 passing the M25 heading to London. "Am I going to make it?" she asks then tells me it's 0 bars left and light on. Nearest petrol is 8 miles.

Place your bets now....

1.Will she turn up home in 10 minutes, or

2. Am I about to do a massive round trip with a can to get to the northbound M3 between J2 & J1?????

She will turn up, having not filled up the car, and leave you to run out on the way to work
