#700842November 23, 1998
VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
I WAS DRIVING ON AN INTERCHANGE RAMP AT APPROXIMATELY 50 MPH. IT WAS TWO LANES AND A SEMI STARTED TO MOVE OVER INTO MY LANE. I PRESSED ON THE ACCELERATOR TO KICK IT INTO OVERDRIVE TO GET PAST THE TRUCK. ALL OF A SUDDEN, THE ACCELERATOR WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR AND STUCK THERE. THE ENGINE STARTED REVVING AT A HIGH RPM.. I PUT THE TRUCK INTO NEUTRAL AND KEPT COASTING AS THERE WAS NO PLACE TO PULL OFF. THE ENGINE WAS REVVING AT 5000 RPM. AFTER ABOUT 15 SECONDS, THE ACCELERATOR RETURNED TO NORMAL AND THE ENGINE RPM'S RETURNED TO NORMAL. THE WAY IT HAPPENED WAS JUST AS IF THE "RESUME" BUTTON ON THE CRUISE CONTROL HAD BEEN PRESSED TO RESUME SPEED AFTER YOU SLOW DOWN....THE ACCELERATOR DEPRESSES ON ITS OWN AND THE TRUCK GETS BACK UP TO THE SET SPEED. HOWEVER...THE CRUISE CONTROL WAS OFF SINCE I DISTICNTLY REMEMBER TURNING IF OFF PRIOR TO GETTING INTO INDIANAPOLIS. I REFERENCED YOUR SITE AND FOUND ACTION NUMBER EA98018 TO LOOK VERY SIMILAR TO THIS.
