“On the 6th of december 2000, my s10 blazers throtle plate stuck, wide open while I was rearanging the truck in my driveway. It then sent me flying into my neighbors back yard, where I took out a hedge row, a bird feeder, and a couple small pine trees. Then I proceded into the yard behind my neighbors house, where I smashed into a medium to large sized tree, which did not stop my vehicle, or unstick the throttle. Then my truck continued into there neighbors yard where I was headed straight for the back of there house, so instead of hitting there house I aimed the truck into a large maple tree. …”
