I've actually had that happen - the spring on the gas pedal return somehow jumped out of position and it just went to the floor on me. Quick shift to neutral, the engine gunned itself, and then I killed the engine and coasted off of the highway to figure out what in the hell had happened.
I suppose it's a matter whether you expect if anything could go wrong, and then knowing what to do... technical knowledge won't always save the world, but it sure helps when you're trying to troubleshoot things. Why they didn't shift, probably panic.
