Dash Cam Records Speeding SUV With Stuck Gas Pedal

She could not turn the car off she tried. It had a push start and it would not turn it off. She also tried to put it in neutral but it would not budge. Btw the car has built in SYNC so she at least didn't have to hold the phone while she talked to the 911 operator.

Notice how there's never any brake lights.
This women is a crackpot and there will be nothing found wrong with the car.

There isn't a factory vehicle manufactured with brakes that are weaker than the acceleration power of the vehicle. Even if her gas pedal was stuck, the brakes would have been powerful enough to stop it.

Even with push button start, she could have turned off the car. I cant believe anyone would make the claim that she couldn't because it was push button! Wow!
There are brakes, there's an emergency brake, there's put the car in NEUTRAL, so many options but these days, people are taught these options so they get into a situation and they have no clue.
Dumb as a clam!!!

Im sure she just loved going that speed and driving off into the grass to get around people. That was the highlight of her day. She was on the phone with the 911 operator trying all the things everyone has mentioned and they did NOT work. Google and find the information on this and you will see.
