    'Help, I'm doing 135mph and can't stop'

    A quiet Sunday afternoon drive home from visiting friends turned into a terrifying 135mph ordeal for a motorist after the accelerator on his BMW jammed and the car's brakes failed.

    Sounds like sabotage, someone wants him dead.
    Coarse edged youth, the irish pendants string from their smiles
    not yet plucked as to slacken the seams
    and drag down the features of age,
    no folds or creases from unkempt wear
    eyes of tranquilty, crystalline-beads
    no sign of despair in their hair, nor their hearts
    but oh they have yet to be experienced and that makes aging so very worth it...ML circa2012

    That was one of my friends. He suffered little injuries thankfully. Now he plans to make an even faster approach with no brakes.

    he should have cut the engine when they did the box maneuver, what kind of puss can't steer with no power steering at around 60-70 mph, the truck I learned to drive in was a retired phone utility truck loaded with my dads tools it had no power steering when I first started driving it.

    Shift to the lowest gear to slow speed then turn off engine, if the wheel locks up turn the key to unlock it.

    I find his story incredible, there is no way the accelaerator stuck at the same time the brakes went out and the transmission.

    Gears were jammed
    Coarse edged youth, the irish pendants string from their smiles
    not yet plucked as to slacken the seams
    and drag down the features of age,
    no folds or creases from unkempt wear
    eyes of tranquilty, crystalline-beads
    no sign of despair in their hair, nor their hearts
    but oh they have yet to be experienced and that makes aging so very worth it...ML circa2012
