Mark, Ted and Pete work for a new tech company, and are driving to a meeting with a potential customer, who's located up in the mountains.
Ted, the hardware guy, is driving, when suddenly the car stops responding to the steering wheel. The car veers towards the edge of the road as he brakes, but he's not going to be able to stop before they go go off the side of the road and down the mountainside. Luckily, the steering starts working again just in time, and they screech to a halt at the edge of the cliff.
After such a narrow escape, they get out of the car and discuss what to do next.
Ted says, "Well, I could just open up the bonnet and take a look - it might be something obvious that I can fix."
Mark, the manager, say "No, we'd better just call the RAC, and get it towed."
Pete, the programmer says, "No, there's no need to do any of that. The problem's gone away now, so we can just drive on, and see if we can reproduce the conditions under which the problem occurs."
