since it actually might have caught on a floor mat (but didn't).



motorbikes now have throttle by ware too. And pretty soon most automatic
transmissions will be getting rid of the shifter to select or change gears
and will have a dial or buttons to select gears. Many high end cars already
have electronic transmissions.
