This is really getting out of hand.
I know...what a circus this was today with all these moronic congressmen bashing Toyota for problems that any good researcher can figure out were almost all caused by driver errors. All car companies get sued repeatedly for accidents that are almost entirely caused by driver error. The Firestone tire recall also was overplayed in the media. Although some tires were defective, the tires didn’t cause the accidents directly. It was bad driving and overreaction to a tire failure that caused SUVs to roll over. I had a tire blow out on me once while driving a big Ford Bronco XLT, and the tire failure did not cause any loss of steering control. I just pulled over into the left shoulder and took my sweet time waiting for the highway to clear out for a full half mile before I jogged across the highway. People are just screwing up in their Toyotas and stepping on the gas instead of the brake, and I would bet that many of these people are drinking, tired out from lack of sleep, or stoned on some kind of prescription drug.
