MY JEEP WRANGLER (2DR, 4X4) WAS IN THE PARKING LOT AT WORK. WHEN I STARTED IT AND MOVED THE GEAR SHIFT FROM PARK TO DRIVE, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY ACCELERATED VIOLENTLY. WITHIN 2 SECONDS, I WAS SLAMMING INTO THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME. BY THEN I WAS JAMMING ON THE BRAKES AGAIN, BUT MY CAR STILL FELT LIKE IT WAS INCREASING IN SPEED--THROTTLE WIDE OPEN! WHEN I HIT THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME, MY JEEP PUSHED IT ABOUT 15 FEET UP OVER A CURB TIL IT FINALLY HIT ANOTHER CAR AND STOPPED. ITS BACK TIRES WERE ABOUT 10 INCHES DEEP INTO THE DIRT AND JAMMED UP AGAINST ANOTHER VEHICLE. MY JEEP WAS STILL GOING, AND CLIMBED UP ACROSS HIS HOOD AND OVER TO THE OTHER SIDE, COMING TO REST UPRIGHT. MY JEEP LEFT TIRE MARKS ON THE PAVEMENT AS I TRIED TO STOP IT. THE CAR I HIT, A 2009 VOLKSWAGEN, WAS DESTROYED--TOTALED. OVER $20,000 DAMAGE ON THAT CAR ALONE. THERE WAS OVER $7000 DAMAGE TO MY JEEP. THE 3RD VEHICLE HAD DAMAGE AS WELL. THE ENTIRE INCIDENT TOOK LESS THAN 5 SECONDS---THIS WAS CONFIRMED BY PEOPLE WHO HEARD THE SOUNDS OF THE ENGINE SCREAMING AND THE CRASH ITSELF. MY TOES AND THE BALL OF MY FOOT HURT FOR A COUPLE OF DAYS FROM JAMMING ON THE BRAKE, BUT MY JEEP DIDN'T HAVE TIME TO STOP BEFORE IT WAS HITTING THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. THE CAR I HIT SLOWED ME DOWN, AND PROBABLY SAVED ME. I HAVE SOME MINOR WHIPLASH AND HAD A TERRIBLE HEADACHE FOR SEVERAL DAYS, BUT OTHERWISE NO ONE WAS INJURED--COULD HAVE BEEN FATAL IF THAT CAR WASN'T IN FRONT OF ME TO STOP ME, BECAUSE I WAS GOING SO FAST.
