Slightly OT, but I've heard of rental agencies handing the customer a 
big 'surcharge' for breaking the TERMS & CONDITIONS of the rental 
agreement for driving the vehicle like it was stolen. (the GPS tracking 
flagged them). They apparently thought they could bet from 'A' to 'B' at 
the speed of a rented jet. :-)
