"It looks like you're trying to flee a wildfire. However, you have just run out of Elon X Points and are unable to continue driving. Please wait 5 hours for your Elon X Points to replenish. Can't wait? We'd like to offer you our once in a lifetime SpaceX Booster X bundle of 15,000 points for just $299.99!"
