Demo of Simple device to Solve Toyota recall problem.

This is a live demonstration of an Emergency shutdown device developed to give Toyota drivers a LAST RESORT in case of any unintended acceleration ( or stuck gas pedal ) Works regardless of what the problem actually is. The point I'm trying to make with this is that I'm only 1 man and I came up with this, why can't thousands of engineers do any better?

I got a better solution. See the thing on your shifter that says "N"? You get the idea.

I'm still baffled as to why people couldn't get it through their heads to shift into Neutral or just kill the Ignition. You would still have steering and brakes although they would be a bit stiff. The steering wheel will only lock when the transmission is in Park and the trans wouldn't let you shift to Park when the vehicle is in motion. Vehicles are designed to be able to allow the operator to control the vehicle to a safe stop in the event of a breakdown such as power loss.

I have a better solution,sell the piece of crap and buy a decent American car.

@Anticrombie918 clutch or no clutch, thats why theres neutral. slap it there and your good

@TR4zest

The lever is movable. Engine torque in an automatic does not affect the shift lever. Also many shifters now do not have a cable or linkage, they shift electronically.

@Anticrombie918 or just put it in neutral. but i guess people dont know what that is. I mean hell sounds like the devils work to me.

[TR4zest]

The 'Move it to Neutral' comments here seem pretty smug for people who have never been through this. Here's a thought: perhaps when the vehicle is in max acceleration when the throttle is stuck open, the torque in the transmission is so high, the lever might not be movable.

@joeldude76 i remeber making that comment somewhere else and everyone gave me crap that "oh, its more difficult on a prius... its not quite the same setup" i looked it up, its mounted funny, but is still Reverse->neutral->drive... people are stupid and don't know how to operate their vehicles. if you own a car, you should know how to put the fuckin thing in neutral.

@Anticrombie918 why dont people but the car into neutrul??!?!?!

@friendorfoo777 i dont see any video notations
