Have you tried to steer a car doing 100mph on a packed road without powersteering?
This guy was lucky....very lucky |

why don't you? It says nothing about him trying this, just his brakes overheated causing him to speed up.
Anyway this sounds like a fun ride to me. The whole of the road escorted by 4 police cars, going as fast as you can, for as long as you can without getting into trouble. Sounds pretty good to me. I certianly wouldn't start crying or flip it ove ra round about. I'd just wait for the petrol run out, or just kill the engine and coast it till I stopped. |

Thats bullshit though there are more ways to stall a car than to turn the ignition though.

Did a search and found this,
WELL, TRY THIS...
Stephen Mead, assistant chief examiner at the Institute of Advanced Motorists, says:
DO NOT
Put your foot underneath the accelerator pedal and try to lift it up. You could lose control of the vehicle
Brake. It will not help as the accelerator will still be jammed on
Pull key out of ignition — the steering will lock
Try to use handbrake. “The rear wheels are likely to lock and then it’s goodnight Vienna”
DO
Shift the car into neutral
Turn the key one notch to kill the engine. You will lose power steering and power-assisted brakes but you will still be able to control the car

Only a fool would say that, I can't show you what I was trained in a defensive driving class, 25 years ago.
Start thinking before you try to insult me.
This was proof to show what I said from my first post.
