BACKING UP TO PARKING SPOT A HOME, FROM A DEAD STOP I GOOSED THE THROTTLE TO GO UP A SLIGHT INCLINE AND THROTTLE STUCK WIDE OPEN IN REVERSE. STOOD ON THE BRAKE FOR 20FT WHILE FIGHTING THE THROTTLE, HIT THE SIDE OF GARAGE AND THREW IT INTO DRIVE AND CONTINUED TO STAND ON THE BRAKES FOR ANOTHER 40FT IN DRIVE. AFTER SMASHING THE IGNITION BUTTON FRANTICALLY ABOUT A DOZEN TIMES AND ALSO ENGAGING THE EMERGENCY BRAKE, THE JEEP SHUT OFF. THIS ALL HAPPENED IN OUR DRIVEWAY THAT OUR CHILDREN PLAY ON OFTEN. LUCKILY NO ONE WAS HURT, AND NO ONE WAS IN THE VEHICLE WITH ME BUT THIS COULD HAVE BEEN WAY WORSE. NEVER HAD AN ACCIDENT IN MY LIFE UNTIL THIS EVENT. COMPLETELY OUT OF MY CONTROL. NOTE THE SKID MARKS ON THE DRIVEWAY. *TR
