I WAS BACKING OUT OF A PARKING SPACE AT A TACO BELL WHEN I NOTICED A CAR COMING SO I DECIDED TO STOP AND PULL BACK INTO MY PARKING SPACE TO LET IT PASS. WHEN I STEPPED ON THE BRAKE MY CAR SUDDENLY ACCELERATED IN REVERSE AND I STEPPED ON THE BRAKE AGAIN, BUT MY CAR CONTINUED TO ACCELERATE. I TURNED MY CAR TO AVOID HITTING THE CAR AND ANY OTHER CARS THAT MAY HAVE BEEN BEHIND ME. MY CAR CONTINUED TO ACCELERATE AND JUMPED A CURB, CROSSED OVER A SIDEWALK AND ONTO A LAWN AREA BEHIND TACO BELL. I STEPPED ON THE BRAKE AGAIN TRYING TO GET MY CAR TO STOP. I TURNED MY WHEELS TO KEEP FROM GOING INTO THE DRIVE UP LANE AND FINALLY GOT MY CAR TO STOP. *TR
