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

But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
