    Or just going too fast. A lady near us thought you could just drive 100 around a corner rise because it is a Tesla. Car left the road and took out a lamp post. People just aren’t good drivers sometimes, and over estimate their skills. Lets not assume stuck pedal, until a real report comes out

      It might not have been a stuck pedal, but many of these electric cars accelerate much faster than people expect. Which is how normal people end up taking out lamp posts or rolling their vehicle, etc…
