I've had the cruise control refuse to kick off a few times trying to stop for a light. Makes for an interesting stop.
The scariest incident was a TomTom selected route through the Catskills to West Saugerties. This was before I knew about shortest route vs. fastest route and RV friendly GPS apps. The road is a 13% downgrade, lane-and-a-half gravel road in my 28 foot gasser. About half way down I was smelling brakes. Stopped and let things cool off, then just went down in 1st gear, stopping on the flats. I didn't know it at the time, but only my front brakes were working.
All I could think was "Jeez, I hope there's not a 10 foot bridge at the bottom of this".
