You can still have runaway acceleration if you're not pressing the brakes hard enough. As happened in the Lexus case on the highway in the US.

Pinakita sa TV Patrol yung video. Di ko lang pinansin ng husto dahil may ginagawa ako. Two case yata pero the second one does not have a video. Pictures lang and testimonial from the Montero owner who said he doesnt believe about the SUA before it happened to him. BTW, the one with video happened with a senior citizen driver, retired military yata. It happened sa Marikina sa st. Vincent hospital. Very familiar area as I pass by there almost regularly.

Can't comment without the video, unfortunately.

Like I said, it's possible that he wasn't pressing hard enough on the brakes, but if he was at least pressing on the brakes, that is evidence that he probably wasn't pressing on the gas pedal.

4th video, around 0:40 seconds.

Another parking lot scene. But this time with the brake lights on. Same pattern with previous videos.

Now this video is different from other videos since you can clearly see that the brake lights are on but still the montero plowed the other cars! How can that happen? I'm pretty sure the retired general is stepping on the brakes with enough force. Or is he stepping on both pedals thus causing the accident?

some facebook page said the gas pedal cannot overpower the brake pedal. so how do we explain that?

IMHO. Umarangkada na muna bago makatapak sa brake, may momentum kaya umabot parin dun sa mga nakapark pero hindi ganun kalakas ang impact. Pero nakakatakot padin. huhuhu.

Ang dami na ng incidents... Im guessing the total tally will eventually surpass a certain figure in my head. But hoping nobody gets hurt. And maybe a closure not from topgear and abscbn. Lol.

What now? Mahina tumapak sa preno? Driver error stepping on the gas and brakes on the same time? Not enough proof coz the the video doesn't show the driver is really stepping hard on the brakes.. He's OLD, He's stupid-- Montero is a super powerful car.. SUA never happened to me, so it won't happen to anyone... Doesn't have money to pay the damages incurred... Insurance is only TPL?
