My point in wondering why the inability of the driver to shut down the engine isn't being addressed is that I'd think there would be a large hue and cry for an emergency shutoff if that was an issue. Making the gas pedal shorter is all well and good but the bottom line is that if the driver had been able to turn off the ignition, he most likely wouldn't have killed himself and three others. I'd expect that issue to be discussed with as much importance as the stuck throttle but for some reason, from what I've read, it is being ignored.
