Narrative

An experienced vehicle operator with an impeccable driving record experienced unforeseeable, unexpected, sudden, unintended and uncontrollable acceleration of the vehicle resulting in a crash. The dealer from which the vehicle was purchased produced a single-sheet printout of data from the vehicle's onboard computer evidencing zero pressure on the accelerator pedal and about 150-pounds-per-square-inch of pressure on the brake pedal in connection with the incident.
