A guy tried to fake a sticking "accelerator" and is about to get BUSTED.

And by stepping on the brakes he couldnt get a 100hp prius to stop. And it also didnt do any glazing to the pads or rotors.

 

old news player. Lots of sad ***** are faking the failure. Toyota FTMFW.

 

I'm not so quick to judge. I don't know if it happened or not, but either way this dude is getting smeared. If it was faked shame on this dude for not only coming up with a lame scam, but putting the life of the CHP officer in jeopardy. I generally like to give people the benefit of the doubt, but people do stange things in times of desperation.

 

Seems like Toyota is just trying to place blame on someone else to me. The guy isn't even going to sue Toyota, so why would he make it up?

 

Yeah there's many angles. but he wants a new prius out of the deal.

 

saw this on yahoo.com

 

To get out of a reckless driving charge, thats why. And he will sue...eventually...the guy is over 700k in debt.
