Winnerhofer,
The quote "by Bill Palmer" is very good. Basically, I have the same perspective , Bill has better wording. One remark though… Instead of a piano player comparison, I would choose a Toyota Prius driver. I mean: Even with brake fully applied, the airspeed still builds up… "The experts are right." The driver needs recurrent training and practice for manual shifting in neutral... Is this right? or… Toyota has to change design!
Already in 2010, Prius was the safer car regarding the sudden acceleration issue
