| 2003 | VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL | THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THIS HAPPENED. THE FIRST TIME THIS OCCURRED WAS ABOUT 6 MOS PRIOR TO THIS RECENT INCIDENT THOUGH I COULDN'T RECALL EXACTLY WHEN. I WAS ON STOP ON AN INTERSECTION TRYING TO TURN RIGHT. I HAD MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE PEDAL. JUST AS I SLOWLY RELEASED MY FOOT THE CAR ACCELERATED AND MOVED TOWARDS THE RIGHT LANE OF WHERE I WANTED TO GO HOWEVER THERE WAS STILL INCOMING TRAFFIC. I WAS ABLE TO STEER MYSELF TOWARDS THE MIDDLE LANE AND AVOIDED THE INCOMING CAR. SECOND INCIDENT HAPPENED TODAY: ON MY WAY HOME AND ENTERING MY GARAGE, I HAVE SLOWLY RELEASED MY FOOT OFF THE BRAKE PEDAL; THE CAR SIMPLY ACCELERATED FORWARD AT A MAXIMUM SPEED. I HIT OUR GARAGE WALL. THE WALL HAPPENED TO BE A COMMON WALL TO OUR FAMILY ROOM. THIS BORE A 3' X 4' HOLE IN OUR FAMILY ROOM; THE COUCH WHICH WAS PLACED AGAINST THE WALL MOVED RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROOM -WHICH SHOWS THE EXTENT OF THE SPEED PICK-UP AS WELL AS THE DAMAGE. I AM GLAD TO SHARE PHOTOS OF THIS INCIDENT. *TR |
