Pedal Mix-up Causes Sudden Acceleration Accidents
Accidents can happen very quickly. When they do, they can be devastating. Some of the most serious crashes occur when a driver suddenly accelerates. These accidents are often unpredictable because the driver did not intend to step on the gas. A car can accelerate forward or backwards and may run into other vehicles, pedestrians, buildings, or anything else. There are as many as 16,000 accidents each year that are caused by pedal mix-ups.
