Imagine this happening in your T10

French driver found himself re-enacting the Hollywood thriller "Speed" this week after his car sped up to 125 mph and wouldn't stop.

According to several media reports, Frank Lecerf was driving to the supermarket in his specially handicapped-enabled Renault Laguna when the car started acting up. Every time the 36-year-old attempted to brake, the car accelerated, eventually topping out at a terrifying 125 mph.

With no other options, Lecerf sped along the highway, managing to place a panicked call to emergency services. Police cars formed a speeding phalanx for the motorist, escorting him until he finally ran out of gas and swerved into a ditch in Alveringem, Belgium, about 125 miles from his house, the Guardian reports.

"My life flashed before me," Lecerf told Le Courrier picard, according to the Guardian. "I just wanted it to stop."

His lawyer said they planned to file a lawsuit against Renault.

Putting the vehicle in neutral might help. It just seems there are a lot of things that could be done before you get to 125 MPH, unless your are looking for a law suit against an auto mfg.

I worked at Mercedes dealership and had a travler wait till she was on the offramp to start slowwing down. She said her cruise wouldn't shut off so she ran into the first light pole she could. Car was a total loss. She asked what she should have done and I said turn the engine off. She replyed " Men ,your all alike. Thats the same thing my husband said."
