Apologies!

That went well.....

Maybe he needs an auto so he doesn't confuse the brake/clutch!

And in a very short video, we have a demonstration of an issue that cost Audi $millions in the US, except there it was "unintended acceleration" - owners who would swear blind that they had their foot on the brake (when in fact they had their foot on the accelerator) and sued Audi for having a fault on their cars.

Do you mean Toyota?

[RJP001]

Was he trying to do something like left foot braking and failed miserably?

[M4cruiser]

No, it was indeed Audi, many years ago.

The Toyota issue was more recent and a different problem.

Audi suffered a similar issue back in the late Eighties/early Nineties, its not a new thing!
