Excuse me while I hop on my soapbox for a minute. Not picking on you personally, but drivers in general. Your little event proves two things- 1; standing on the brake will stop the car, no matter that the throttle is calling for power, 2; nobody teaches that in emergency, TURN THE KEY OFF!! In the first scene, this debunks the story about so many cars that the gas stuck, I couldn't stop, even racing 100 mph down the freeway, or hitting that car stopped at a light & killing several people. In the second scene, nobody teaches drivers to turn off the key. It should be a driver's first reaction, cut the engine off, drift to the side of the road, after it stops, figure out what to do next. To the naysayers- turning off the key will NOT lock the steering. Any car since the late 60's have to be in park, or if stick shift push a button, before the key can turn to the lock position. As long as the engine is still turning, there will be power to the steering, after engine dies, steering will be a bit stiff, but still work. Power brake assist will be lost after the engine dies, but brakes will still work with a little extra effort. End of rant. Willie
