would going to neutral cause the engine to swing to its max rpm?
how long you letting the engine run at that rpm?
would it allow you to use any gear while at that rpm?
how much control would you have over the vehicle to maneuver it while in neutral? Example (uphill and overtaking lane) you could come to stop, but what happens next.
Don't forget most modern vehicles have rev limiters.as well.Slartibartfast wrote:wagonrunner wrote:i have no experience with the neutral thing, so hoping to learn something.

1. It might swing to max rpm
2. Until you stop which you should try to do as soon as possible without causing an accident
3. If it's a neutral car you can get into any gear if you are comfortable with rev matching or willing to burn out you clutch. In automatic, if you slap it back into drive it may not be that much of a problem depending on how high the revs are. I think the torque converter might help prevent engine and transmission damage. Maybe a mechanic or someone better with cars can weigh in here.
4. Neutral just means you coasting and cannot accelerate. You still have full control over your steering
If this happens to you I recommend what the other guys said. Slapping it in neutral and coasting to the safest stopping point is your best bet. Brakes should still be working fine. Better to let the engine rev and damage itself (which it should not have time to do) than to risk a high speed collision where you put you life and a lot more than just the engine in danger.

8 quick steps to take if your gas pedal sticks
How to react if malfunctions or external interferences cause unintended acceleration.
It doesn't happen often, but when a gas pedal sticks or malfunctions, the situation is frightening and extremely dangerous. In an instant, the vehicle can accelerate to full speed and become unresponsive to braking efforts.
Mechanical malfunctions - such as a faulty throttle, external interferences, a floor mat that wedges under the pedal - can contribute to this type of unintended acceleration.
Below are 8 quick ways that may correct the issue and remain safe in an emergency situation.
- Stay calm and try not to panic.
- Push the brake firmly with both feet and hold it down. Don’t pump the brake pedal or release it because you will lose all your vacuum power assist, causing your brakes to become stiff and very hard.
- Shift the car into neutral. If the car has a manual transmission, remember to depress the clutch to shift gears.
- Steadily hold the brake and look for an escape route, like a hard shoulder on the highway. Avoid quick lane changes, which could cause you to swerve and lose control of the vehicle. If possible, steer in a straight line.
- Do not turn off the engine unless shifting into neutral is unsuccessful. Turning off the engine will turn off the power-assist brake functions, making it harder to maneuver the car.
- When you have come to a controlled stop out of the way of traffic, turn the engine off (if you have not already done so). If you use a key, keep it in the ignition when you turn off the engine so the steering wheel doesn't lock.
- If your vehicle has a start on/off button, hold the button down for at least three seconds to disable the vehicle. Do not tap repeatedly.
- Call for assistance. Do not drive the vehicle until it has been professionally serviced.
"Smart Throttle" Solutions
Some new vehicles come with "smart throttle" technology, which reduces the possibility of unintended accelerations caused by mechanical failures. These computer-based systems recognize when both the brake and accelerator are being depressed. They also tell the engine to give precedence to braking and to ignore the accelerator.

In the previous veejo at 1:05 he says he endup hitting the concrete barrier at 207.
He would have had to hit those barrier head on, or if he wring hard left or right just before, the whole side would have had more damage.

It is usually disengaged by applying the brakes or depressing the accelerator pedal.
All the driver had to do was shift the transmission into neutral!
Man could real act tho

So multiple independant systems fail simultaneously?
Hit the barrier at 207 and live to tell? Lol
Mankind either playing for that insurance money or just a bitter lemon owner trying to get back at dealership...
Either way, he on sh*t...
