I've heard that what these people do is drive using both feet - left on the brake and right on the gas. Then when a split decision must be made they just plunge the wrong foot down. T'would be an easy mistake to make if you drive with both feet.

My brother recently told me he drives with both feet and I told him that's how those accidents occur and I think it freaked him out and he stopped doing it. At least I hope he stopped.
