Toyota Unintended Acceleration

[Brendan K. Walsh]

There is an article I read somewhere on the web on this, audi responded by
moving the brake pedal in the 85(?) models up and over to decrease the risk
of a driver doing just that. Unfortunatly people are still morons and a few
more cases were reported...
I don't think a cause was ever truly determined other than "eliminate the
impossible and whatever remains...."
the same article also stated that the in initial report, some lady crashing
into her garage,  that the car's brakes were properly functioning and there
was no other damage to the car(other than what she caused).
