Default Government has reached no conclusions in Toyota Sudden Acceleration

Toyota engine computers may have gotten it wrong in the first place.

"The government says it hasn't reached any conclusions about whether
Toyota drivers may be to blame for their vehicles suddenly
accelerating.

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration says today its
engineers continue to investigate possible causes of sudden
acceleration in Toyotas along with the National Academy of Sciences
and NASA.

The Wall Street Journal reported Tuesday the government had analyzed
dozens of event data recorders, or black boxes, in Toyota vehicles
involved in crashes blamed on unintended acceleration and found the
throttles were open and the brakes not engaged. That would suggest
drivers were stepping on the gas pedal instead of the brakes."

Actually the article says " found the
throttles were open and the brakes not engaged. That would suggest
drivers were stepping on the gas pedal instead of the brakes."

So your intepretation of "Toyota engine computers may have gotten it
wrong in the first place." which is not a part of the article you
referenced at all, is just as retarded as you are.

Thankfully the average Toyota owner is about 30 IQ points above you
and can see through your transparently retarded schemes.

Take your meds john, you're making an ass out of yourself.

Hey johnahole, do you even read this stuff before you post it? It's
the exact opposite of your usual propoganda.

By the way, why not tell us what you drive, john? C'mon - don't be
embarrassed.

There you go again, getting a hard-on for Toyota stories. What's wrong
john? Wish you could afford to purchase a quality Toyota product? You
****ed that you have to take the bus?

How long have you worked the fryer at McDonald's?

Maybe you need another job.
