This is an old article. That happened awhile back. This isnt new.

Wow, I think I would hate to live in your world were news 6 hours old is "old".

Also, that driver who died was a LEO. I have always struggled with understanding how someone who was probably near professional driver status couldn't get the car to stop.

I also saw a statistic that showed that Toyota had an alarming rate of increase of unintended acceleration complaints prior to this disaster. If I can find it I will post it. I guess they started putting floor mats in more cars?
