What should you do if your vehicle's accelerator becomes stuck?

  1. Shift into neutral and steer to a safe location.

  2. Pump the accelerator pedal repeatedly.

  3. Turn off the ignition immediately.

  4. Slam on the brakes to regain control.

The correct answer is: Shift into neutral and steer to a safe location.

If your vehicle's accelerator becomes stuck, shifting into neutral and steering to a safe location is the best course of action. This allows you to safely remove your foot from the gas and come to a stop without the added acceleration from the engine. Pumping the accelerator pedal repeatedly may actually make the problem worse. Turning off the ignition immediately can also be dangerous as it could cause you to lose control of the vehicle or potentially damage the engine. Slamming on the brakes should also be avoided as it could cause the car to become unstable and potentially lead to an accident.
