Not only Toyota, but federal investigators also cannot reduplicate the alleged sudden acceleration James Sikes allegedly experienced last week.
Add to this the fact that Toyota's already been sued over alleged sudden acceleration on non-Prius models, that Sikes' lawyer is now doing most of the talking, and the length of time for which the sudden acceleration lasted, and it's possible we have a case of lawsuit fishing. It happens.
As I noted last week, even before a Washington Post column came out with the same train of thought, we went through some of the same things 20 years ago with Audi. And, a lot of the sudden acceleration allegations then didn't pan out, either.
A skeptical leftist's, or post-capitalist's, or eco-socialist's blog, including skepticism about leftism (and related things under other labels), but even more about other issues of politics. Free of duopoly and minor party ties. Also, a skeptical look at Gnu Atheism, religion, social sciences, more.
Note: Labels can help describe people but should never be used to pin them to an anthill.
