Yep, I totally agree. People who are able to somehow call 911 and report that their car is accelerating out of control and yet for some reason can't put the car in Neutral are a bit puzzling to me also. Who knows if the foot behind the pedal would work, but Neutral should. Maybe they just enter a total state of panic and loss of reasoning abilities, or they just have a severe lack of knowledge of common car functions. Some people just lose it under pressure. I think stuff like that should be covered in the driver's manuals that people have to study to get their driver's license. Call it the 'Toyota' addendum.
