How to stop your vehicle if accelerator sticks
Loading...
Uploaded by beasleyallen on Dec 3, 2009
Last month, Toyota issued a massive recall of nearly 4 million Toyota and Lexis vehicles. The recall is intended to fix a very dangerous defect which can lead to Unintended Acceleration of the vehicle. Initially thought to be an issue with floor mats, the real problem involves the cars electronic throttle system. The recall was prompted by a high speed crash in August in California of a Lexus barreling out of control. As the vehicle hit speeds exceeding 120 mph, family members made a frantic 911 call and said the accelerator was stuck and they couldn't stop the vehicle.

This guys hilarious when he said "To shut off this car you'd have to read the manual!" omg I was rolling! then he's like "These cars today probably don't even HAVE neutral" omg so true lmao

About going into neutral, what if there are cars behind you and around you. You can't just stop like that without causing an accident

Well, when my sister was in the car, it completely locked up. The car sped up, but it locked the steering wheel and brakes. We were horrified! We couldn't put the car in neutral, the shifter locked in place.
Don't blame the driver for the cars faulty manufacturing, people!

Some people are just so fvcking stupid and goes panic attack.
WTF, drivers should know that going in "N" always work whether if it's a new or old car!
Driver Education should start teaching these common sense to students and listing it in there driver manuals!!

I just can't understand why everything must be done by electronics and computers. Gaspedals did stuck in old days also, but at least you were able to shut down the engine! I absolutely hate cars of today!
