Accelerator Pedal
I started my car and put it in reverse. Accelerator stuck and with both feet on the brake i could not stop the car from moving or reduce its speed. With both feet on the brake and not the accelerator i ran across two lanes of the highway and slammed into a tree. Apparently i have a totaled vehicle/malibu 2000. Trooper did not believe the accelerator was stuck. *jb
