HAIR BALLS has some sneering good fun with an all-too-typical case of “sudden acceleration” in Galveston (apparently, the gas pedal was mistaken for the brake).
Of course, when the poster’s wife had a bout with “sudden acceleration,” that was worthy of an expose by the entire Village Voice empire against the carmaker (because surely the wife — never identified as the wife, a nice lapse of journalistic ethics that agitated one Village Voice editor when pointed out — didn’t mistake one pedal for the other).
