Me too. In H.S. I accidentally jammed the accelerator in my decade old ‘75 Pinto, and two days later nearly collided with the mailbox at the end of the driveway.
When I was in the service, was driving out on the Centerville Turnpike in Chesapeake with a light, wet snow falling. The snow from the road got churned up by my front wheels and started sticking to the throttle linkage on the engine-side firewall. I’d take my foot off the gas, but the pedal stayed where it was, until I gave it a little kick to break off the sticky snow. It worked great until the kick that bumped the gas pedal down STAYED down.
It was like a E-ticket ride at Disneyland watching the landscape spin around me and that big old phone pole...
But I missed the pole and came to rest with one rear wheel on the road and one front wheel on the far side of the roadside culvert. It was that wheel on the asphalt that got me impounded. Heh. But at least the got my car out of there.
