Seriously? Who said "take it out?"
As for the emergency brake crowd. Take your car out to a deserted air strip. Give it WOT and maintain WOT then pull the ebrake and see if it will stop your car while in WOT.
"Seroiusly? Who said use the emergency brake?
The guy wasns't running from police, he called 911 because his car was a runaway train. He states that he tried changing gears to no effect.
Seriously? Who said he was running from the cops?
You can see that even when he barrells into the emergency out of control vehicle lane, his car is barely slowed down. Have any of you ever hit one of these? Do you know how much speed you have to be carrying to simply not be dead stopped by one of these?
Let me get this straight. You think random dude, driving who WASN'T being persued by cops at first decides. Let me call 911, fake a problem with my car for 25 miles, hit a cop in the rear to finally stop, is faking it? As compared to simply something went wrong with his car.
Are we butt hurt because its a pontiac (GM) product?

Seriously? It is utterly impossible to think that the accelerator stuck AND the key could not be turned AND it was stuck in gear and couldn't be shifted AND the brakes failed AND that the guy is not a moron. Impossible to believe all of that. He is a moron who had his foot planted on the accelerator, was to scared to put it in neutral, was afraid to turn the ignition to "off" and since his foot was planted on the accelerator on not the brake, the brakes were never used.
