Heard this on the morning news. Turns out my Tacoma isn't on the list, but my first thought was that I'm glad I drive stick. I'm sure that if my pedal got stuck, I'd immediately drop it in neutral. I doubt that's necessarily the first reaction for someone that is used to automatic.
Scary for sure. A person driving an auto, who might get a bit flustered under the circumstances, could possibly turn the vehicle off, losing braking and steering, and still traveling at a good clip. Yikes.
