Re: Accelerator jam car hits 135mph

I feel that BMW will give the car an all clear (dont want massive safety recalls now do they?). However I do think the guy wanted to write off his motor for insurance purposes, hece crashing into the roundabout.

A few years back one of my old uni mates drove overtook a unmarked police car at approximately 90mph on the motorway. When he noticed flashing lights behind him he poured a bottle of water over his groin and kept his foot on the accelarator for a couple more miles before pulling over on the hard shoulder. He told the police that the accelarator had got jammed and he wet himself as the car approached ridiculous speeds. The police waited for the AA to give the car a once over, and took the car for a spin on the motorway. Satisfied there was nothing wrong with it, they let my mate continue driving the car, with just a word of advice as to take it to the garage as soon as he can. No points or fines for him!
