Heard on the news a few times today about a guy who car's gas pedal stuck andmhe exceeded 100 mph before police deflated All his tires.

What woild you do?

Imimmediatley thought of putting into neutral and once slow down enough turn of the engine.

If this hapoens....what do you do?

Wrong forum? Moving to Serious Business.

Hit the clutch or shift into neutral, and get off the road. Then shut off the engine.

Brake

Shut off engine

In my Jeep?

Drive about 15 miles until it runs out of gas.

In all other cars, neutral.

Celebrate that my 13 year old Accord can still go 100 mph

First I'd try unsticking the pedal with my toe.  If that doesn't work.........

Drive that motherfucker into the biggest group of terrorists I could find. 

Actually "neutral first" is a good reminder.  My first instinct might be to turn off the ignition, forgetting the steering is going to lock.  Although on a straightaway you could probably still brake while having some play in the steering to correct a bit.

No arabs in my area.....

I know its easy for us to think of it but neutral was my very first reaction. NOt sure why someone didnt tell him that over the phone as he called into dispatch.
