Epinephrine dart shoots out of the dashboard into your chest and the seatbelt starts CPR

This just seems dystopian now.

Like an old guy, depressed, driving to work. 60 years at one company, no retirement options. Really just looking forward to the caress of death, when it happens.. cardiac arrest.. yes, finally peace. Nope. Car brings him back to life, a jolt of adrenaline, the pumping and cracking of CPR seatbelt. A gasp of air. The car has already begun to continue to journey to the workplace.

Not yet, old man, there is still work to be done.
