I WAS DRIVING IN TO THE DRIVE WAY GOING INTO GARAGE WHEN THE RV ACCELERATED ON IT OWN. I TRIED TO STOMP ON THE BRAKES BUT THE TIRES WERE SPINNING AND I COULD NOT STOP IT, IT WAS ACCELERATING AT A HIGH SPEED AND THE REAR END WAS FISH TAILING AND THE COACH JUST KEEP GOING FORWARD AND CRASHED IN TO THE REAR WALL AND THROUGH IT. I TRIED TO PUT THE COACH IN PARK BUT IT WAS COMPLETELY OUT OF CONTROL. THERE ARE SKID MARKS WERE YOU COULD SEE THE TIRES TRYING TO STOP. I MANAGED TO PUT IT IN REVERSE AND THE ACCELERATOR WAS STILL RAMPING OUT AND THE COACH FISH TAILED BACK WARDS AND I FINALLY GOT IT SLAMMED INTO PARK. I MANAGED TO STOP JUST BEFORE HITTING A NATURAL GAS METER. *TR
