    Driving along highway speed and the car brakes abruptly and the accelerator pedal was unresponsive. If this would have happened at rush hour, this would have caused a pile-up. If this would have happened in front of a semi, i might be dead. I moved across two lanes of traffic with no throttle control. The car regained throttle response after about 45 seconds.
