According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), more than 470 people died on Kansas roadways in motor vehicle accidents during the last year statistics were available. Despite the fact that a driver's failure to obey traffic laws, inattention to the road, or a number of other human errors may play a role in contributing to a car accident and serious injuries, occasionally, defects with the vehicle's equipment are to blame for severe motor vehicle accidents.
One of the most recent vehicle equipment defects to break into headlines and shock the public is sudden unintended acceleration (SUA), in which a car speeds up immediately without the driver pressing the accelerator pedal and without him being able to stop the car with the brakes. Sudden acceleration is extremely dangerous and may result in injurious, if not fatal, motor vehicle accidents. The Toyota Corporation is the auto manufacturer that is currently under fire as a result of reports that SUA is affecting a number of Toyota vehicles of various makes and models.
From Avalons, Camrys and Corollas to Tundras, Prius and the RAV 4, a number of Toyota cars have been reported to suddenly accelerate. Although Toyota issued a national recall of nearly 6 million at-risk vehicles in the U.S., the threat of sudden acceleration is real, and it's likely that many more people will be injured or killed as a result of SUA in Toyota vehicles. Actions have been taken by the large automaker to resolve the problem, however some argue that the problem lies in defective and faulty electronic systems in the vehicles. The debate continues.
