From a highway speed of 65 MPH the truck, completely on its own, accelerated to over 95 MPH. The cruise control was not on and she was not touching any pedals. When she applied the brakes she left some impressive tire marks on the highway but with 650 foot pounds of torque at the rear wheels the truck was not stopping. She put the truck in neutral and the tachometer pegged all the way. She did manage to pull the truck to the side of the road and turn it off. …”
