The unfortunate thing was quite troubled it seemed, stating "I still cannot believe that I've ruined the car! I'm so accustomed to filling up my petrol car that I completely forgot I was operating a diesel!" I just advised her to settle back and not to be concerned, and also that such things often happen. She had managed to maneuver the vehicle into a protected area and, seeing as it was only a few miles from us, we were able to reach the lady quickly.
