Well, here we go again, get out your beating sticks, find a dead horse and a Prius!!!! :P

 

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20100314/ap_on_bi_ge/us_runaway_prius The story is here.

 

Here's the good part:

 

Sikes called 911 from the freeway on Monday and reported that his gas pedal was stuck and he could not slow down. In two calls that spanned 23 minutes, a dispatcher repeatedly told him to throw the car into neutral and turn it off.

 

Sikes later said he had put down the phone to keep both hands on the wheel and was afraid the car would flip if he put it in neutral at such high speed.

 

The officer — who eventually pulled alongside the car and told Sikes over a loudspeaker to push the brake pedal to the floor and apply the emergency brake — said Sikes braking coincided with a steep incline on the freeway.

 

Once the car slowed to 50 mph, Sikes shut off the engine, the officer said.

 

Reminds me of one of my previous bosses (female). "I need a big SUV, because if your car is really light, doesn't that mean it can fly off the road easier?" :blink:
