Usually the reason is that it's bound up in some manner. As you step into it, the engine torques over and it binds up. In some cases it will actually cause it to open wider. A broken motor mount can cause this to happen also.
Other reasons can be the throttle return spring breaks. I have 3 on my car to prevent this.
Then the most common reason is that it's an easy excuse for those that just flat foot it and loose control.
