The follow up question (not quite mc) was actually what put it in a loop for me-

It kept asking 'what kind of drink?' After apparently interpreting engine noise as asking for one.

Wouldn't respond to 'none' or any other response I gave, except to repeat the q.

As is often the case, reality imitates satire. This reminds me of the "and then" scene from Dude, Where's my Car. https://youtu.be/iuDML4ADIvk

I remember the McDonalds in-store touch screen ordering systems when they were first introduced, which were also astonishingly badly designed.

Using unreliable voice as an input, then not allowing you to cancel/correct, or not supporting it in a robust fashion, is a massive fail. If there is no person there, then I guess you just have to give up and drive away.
