Didn't he remember his driver's ed? "If your accelerator gets stuck, put your car in neutral and then apply brakes." I've had my accelerator stick, and it really works, but I wasn't show boating either. I'm glad he didn't get hurt, but show boating around a neighborhood is stupid and childish. He could have hit a kid on a bike or someone crossing the street and killed them. I'd say his insurance is going to go through the roof, if they don't drop him after the claim.
