  VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL

  WHILE STARTING THE ENGINE AT A SERVICE STATION FOLLOWING FILLING WITH GAS, MY 2000 FORD CROWN VICTORIA MADE A SUDDEN SURGE FORWARD WHEN I PLACED THE CAR IN GEAR AND TURNED THE WHEEL TO THE RIGHT. I HAD MY FOOT ON THE BREAK AND PRESSED THE BREAK PEDAL HARD TO STOP THE CAR. IF I HAD NOT HAD MY FOOT FIRMLY ON THE BREAK PEDAL AND REACTED QUICKLY, OR IF SOMEONE HAD BEEN IN FRONT OF THE CAR, AN ACCIDENT COULD HAVE OCCURED. I HEARD OF A VERY SIMILAR INCIDENT INVOLVING A FATALITY OF A POLICEMAN DRIVING A CV IN COLUMBUS, GA WHEN IS UNEXPECTEDLY SURGED FORWARD WHILE HE WAS DRIVING THROUGH A FAST FOOD DRIVE THROUGH. *AK
