This is what actually happened once when we were playing. :P
I get frequently disconnected and no clue why, and one time I was driving and Unny just looking at the scenery when he notices that the view was changing from what you wouldn't normally see when driving.

I finally found out what was disconnecting me so much and fixed it, so that shouldn't be the problem no more. It should be safer (-ish) to drive with me again! X3

Unny is ofcourse  Unknownwolf
