After I heard the 911 call I had my doubts. Any modern car will stop if you either, smash the brake down, use the emergency brake, shift in neutral, or turn the key back until only the eletronics work.
I have been smelling a big scam since these Prius stories surfaced.
Just like the Audi stories of the 70s, some dumb bugger hit the gas instead of the brake — initially — and then other lying cheating scumbags smelling lawsuit cash have chimed in hoping to hit Toyota in the wallet for “damages.”
Needles in a Pepsi can? Cooked finger in a Wendy’s chili?
HORSECRAP!!!
” use the emergency brake, shift in neutral, or turn the key back until only the eletronics work.”
This is what I want to know.!!!!
While I have driven many cars and over one million miles in my life, I have not driven, but just a few times, since I left the USA in Jan. 2005.
I never saw a car that could not be switched off (first click of the ignition switch) or one that could not be shifted into neutral while moving, or inoperable brakes.
Are the cars that much different now?
