unintended acceleration

When a bad driver accidentally hits the gas pedal instead of the brake pedal inside a parking space, the car will usually accelerate into another object until it is stopped. In the present day, unintended acceleration is a term the offending driver likes to claim in order to avoid paying for their mistakes. Those drivers always blame the car for accelerating on its own. Even if you present them with logs and even witnesses, they will continue to believe their own lie and claim the car accelerated on its own. Companies like Audi, Toyota and Tesla have fallen into this same trap.
