Wasn't a correlation with elderly drivers and the unintended accretion found in the Toyota cases?

  How about a difference between Toyotas and non-Toyotas? It's not like elderly drivers are unique to Toyotas. Also, unintended acceleration seems to have gone away. The control hardware has been changed; driver age, not so much.

  It happened to me. I sure wasn't elderly. The only thing that stopped a crash was shifting into neutral and hitting the brakes. Then, I was sitting there with the engine revving loudly for no reason. Car behind me started backing up. I decided to just shut it off and turn it back on. It went away. Scary stuff. Especially since I had no idea why it happened.

  Just because they could not handle it. It happened to many people, young people hndled that better.
