AND AS I PRESSED ON THE ACCELEATOR, AND LIKE THE FIRST TIME, I FELT THE ACCELERATOR GO DOWN BENEATH MY FOOT, WITHOUT PRESSING TOO HARD. I RAN INTO MY APARTMENT, AND CAUSED A GOOD DEAL OF DAMAGE TO IT.AS WELL AS MY CAR. I HAVE NOT HAD AN INCIDENT SINCE, BUT I REMAIN SCARED THAT IT WILL HAPPEN AGAIN.
