Pontiac Vibe Vehicle Speed Control Safety Report | Aug 09, 2009
Reported on Aug 09, 2009
| I WAS STOPPED IN TRAFFIC AT THE ENTRANCE TO BAXTER STATE PARK IN MAINE IN AUGUST 2009. I WAS DRIVING A 2009 PONTIAC VIBE. WHEN THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME ADVANCED A FEW FEET, I TOUCHED THE GAS PEDAL LIGHTLY TO MOVE FORWARD. WHEN I THEN STEPPED ON THE BRAKE, THE CAR KEPT ADVANCING. I PRESSED HARDER ON THE BRAKE BUT THE CAR KEPT MOVING UNTIL IT STRUCK THE CAR IN FRONT. THIS WAS AT VERY LOW SPEED, AS THE CAR HAD MOVED ONLY SEVERAL FEET. THERE WAS MINOR DAMAGE TO THE CAR IN FRONT, AND ONLY SCRATCHED PAINT ON MY CAR. *TR | |
