Scary stuff. May be disturbing to some.

Didn't realize it had such a crippling effect. I suppose in a morbid way, if you're going to end it this way, better make sure you have no doubts because there is no turning back.

What are the chances of a front mounted engine developing a leak and entering the cabin? Wow, makes me question whether or not car companies should put detectors in the car.

The only people I've ever heard of dying from CO poisoning in a car had a hose from the tailpipe to the driver's window or passed out in their garage with the motor running. Usually it's not an accident.

Should have brought an oxygen tank aboard.

Or in their house, in a room above the garage where a vehicle has been left running. (Possibly turned on by accident with a remote starter).

That only helps a bit.

CO binds to hemoglobin 300x stronger than oxygen. You need hyperbaric oxygen therapy to displace CO off hemoglobin.
