I think some of you guys hit the nail on the head...driver stupidity. I have heard in the past about some people not being able to put the car into neutral while it was accelerating...it wouldnt let them. I have put that to the test several times over the years, fact is, it works everytime.

i also know for a fact that when things happen suddenly, unless you have past knowledge to rely on you will sort of freak out. I know you can be idleing along in traffic and go to step on the brakes and if that pedal goes to the floor...you will swear that car speed up...lol.

Im not saying Toyota dosnt have most of the blame in this deal...from what I hear they did try to cover up a known problem. At what point does the driver accept some responsibility. Put into neutral...it will go i promise. The guy he was afraid it was going to flip if he put into neutral...he's a f'in moron that shouldnt be driving..hell he bought a Prius, what does that tell you.
