- An 18-year-old driving a Honda Pilot in Fargo, North Dakota, wasn't able to stop after the vehicle malfunctioned. The vehicle continued to accelerate, reaching speeds of more than 100 mph before a Minnesota State Trooper was able to catch up to the runaway vehicle. The trooper had to drive in front of the runaway vehicle, and advised the driver to hit the squad car. The trooper then braked and brought the vehicle to a stop. No injuries were reported. Here's the dashcam and body camera video from the Sept. 17, 2024, incident.

Neutral? Shut it off?
Just don't pull the keys out or the wheel will lock
@@jadz684z So it would stop ? Hold the wheel and like a man it will stop.
@@TheEnd-eg6wq The wheel being locked isnt like power steering turning off. It actually puts a pin and locks it in place even the stromgest person wouldnt be able to turn it
@@TheEnd-eg6wqyeah but if you remove the keys or turn it too far back the steering wheel will lock and you will not be able to turn it so you might veer into something
Plot twist: "Sir, do you know how fast you were going and why I stopped you?!"
Actually the first question in any traffic stop or accident, is "have you been drinking"?
I'm 56 now but when I was 16-17ish I was driving a POS Mercury LTD and the gas pedal stuck due to the floor mat being crumpled up around the gas pedal, scary feeling at first but then I reached down and pulled the floor mat out. If you ever find yourself in that situation put the car in neutral or turn it off. I can completely understand how frightening that can be as I was a beginner driver at that time.
When this happens, put the damn car in neutral. It's a feature that can be done when the car is moving. It's mean to be a safety feature just incase something like this happens. It happened to me once, stuck gas pedal in my 1978 Mercedes 450SLC. I put it in neutral, and slammed the brakes, then turned the car off. I swear people have zero survival instincts now.
Unfortunately we have people on the road that think a car can drive without a transmission & that all cars only spin the rear wheels.
People have survival instincts, just not mechanical knowledge or mechanical instincts. In-person drivers ed courses need to be improved, Germany apparently requires you to demonstrate that you can regain control upon losing grip, meanwhile you can get a driver's license in the US without knowing why you actually need to use the parking brake upon parking.
My friend has a Honda Pilot. It has a computer-controlled transmission and start-stop push-button controls. If the computer malfunctions, it is quite possible that the driver could not put it into neutral or turn the vehicle off.
It's not always possible to shift to neutral
@@robertforzano4697 I know, it's an electronic gear selector. You have to depress the brakes enough to trigger the gear selector unlock if it's stuck. It's the same way you would put it in drive. My car, requires about 20% of brake force just to unlock the parking brake in order for you to put it in gear. Any less, then it doesn't work. You can also press the stop start and hold it for 2 seconds and the car shuts off. Honda built it with a 2sec timer in case you accidentally turn the car off. Engineers actually built a lot of safety features in cars just in case the drive by wire failed. It should be in the owners manual.
@@blanknam3d very true. The distracted drivers makes it worse. I've seen people hit curbs and blow out tires and crack rims, to ball joints breaking off collapsing the wheel right in front of me. I even saw a car crab walk before. So many people neglect their tires. The only thing that makes contact with pavement. You would think people would spend a little more time learning about the cars since we rely and spend so much time in them. 43,000 fatal crashes a year.
OMFG.... thats scary asf , i remember that phone call of the people whos accelerator got stuck and all you hear is them on phone to operator OH NO!!! then BAM radio static
Imagine if he got red light tickets in the mail the next day
If the car is drive-by-wire and a sensor fails where it won't tell the transmission to shift into neutral then it's going to stay in whatever gear it's in. If it's a push button start, the car shouldn't let you turn it off while it's moving because then you'll lose power steering.
This isn't like my Miata with a physical key and manual gearbox. The Honda might not have an automatic gearbox where you can just slide it from drive into neutral if it was built within the last 5 - 10 years.
I get what you're saying, that all cars are now drive by wire, and some cars like the Pilot uses an electronic gear selector, but neutral is actually a safety feature for stuff like this. You should be able to switch it into neutral no matter the situation. It was built to prevent stuck open throttle. For the Honda electronic gear selector, if the car is running, you would need to hit the brakes and press neutral. You don't even need to brake all the way, just enough to trigger the unlock.
This is the reason I still own a E90 BMW and BP Mazda3 awd hatch, they still use mechanical gear selector.
Its definitely automatic.
Manual you just put in neutral.
All vehicles have push to start have a way to shut them down. Some cars you have to hit the button twice and others you have to hold it down for a couple seconds. Quit making excuses for stupid people
@@Nathan93Baker He means it might not have a physical gear selector where you can put it in neutral at all time
I thought we learned from the Toyota incident that you're supposed to put it in neutral and use the e-brake? I would think this is in all 9-1-1 operators manuals, too.
It's pure commonsense to put the car in neutral. Neutral is a safety feature for situations like this, that's why you can push it in neutral without hitting the gear switch and there's a safety stop to prevent it from going into reverse. It's not just for pushing you car.
@DroneStrike1776 I read elsewhere that the kid tried these things but it didn't work
If you watch the video they talk about it in the video. They have tried all that and it wouldn’t work.
can't always shift to neutral, and at these speeds the parking brake may not be sufficient either.
@@cruisinguy6024 says who? Do you know this for a fact that you can't always put a car into neutral? 27 years of driving and I've never experienced it. In a 1978 Mercedes 450slc, my pedal was stuck and I threw it in neutral. For new cars you need to depress the brake pedal to unlock the shifter. All you need is just little pressure. Also, Honda has a safety feature, hold the stop start for 2 seconds and it kills the entire car.
just stand on the brakes. My car has 420 hp and top speed of 175. The brake will over power that car at 125 mph.
That is a fact. This is BS!
I beg to disagree. Try standing on both pedals at speed.
Neutral is the answer.
@@MyHighHorse Beg all you want, been there done it. Kid did not need to be on the road. The car did not mess up, the driver did.
If they get to hot they are useless. If they were cold, yes, the law says brakes have to be stronger then the car they are on
I had a Dodge Grand Caravan that did this, but it was in a fleet vehicle that had poor transmission maintenance (transmission solenoids and shifter linkage locked up). Still, I was holding my sphincter at 70 MPH for a good two-three minutes before I finally managed to shove the thing into Neutral and coast to a stop.
Oh, and because it was in drive, it wouldn't let me turn the key off. For those of you with Grand Caravans / Pacificas, change your transmission filter and have it inspected every 60k. 120k is way too long.
Have the same car you can easily put In neutral or shut it off I’ve done it
Apparently didn't work. The driver was on the phone the police they tried everything
@@lucasjohnson1467 Safety feature for these 9spd electronic gear selector Honda, apply brakes and push neutral. You need to apply the brakes enough for it to trigger the unlock to change gear. You can always apply the emergency brake and then downshift to use engine braking.
@@lucasjohnson1467
Driver is incompetent or lieing for attention.
@@timb7775 have you seen the news story? Obviously not.
not smart enough to turn key off? straight road, safer than running into another vehicle!
Never turn the key off! This can lead to the steering being locked.
Push button cars do not shut off when in gear.
Neutral is the right answer.
Mine does. I can turn it off even in drive, while driving highway speeds. 2011 Infiniti G25.
I was a backseat passenger in a 2 door car when this exact same thing happened (we were all 16 at the time). I don't remember how we got it to stop (I think neutral and key off), but it was one of the scariest moments of my life. Glad to see this one turn out ok.
Shortly after I got my driver's license I was using my cruise control after it just took off, accelerated. Luckily, I was able to get the vehicle to a stop after a few miles. Had my dad and uncle come get me and the vehicle. They disconnected the cruise control and I never had the issue again.
So lets go ahead and clear some things up with this, this was a Honda Pilot from 2016 to 2022. To confirm, i went through Alldata and IATN and can 100% confirm this is not possible on this vehicle. This pilot has push bottom shifter that will let you go into neutral at speed when pressed because the ABS pump is electric. If the throttle body was stuck open, the braking system would have over powered it (has to by law) and the ECU would see this and cut the injectors. And finally, this pilot has push bottom start and if you hit it, it will cut the car off even at speed according to Honda. This was 100% the driver on something, high, drunk or something else, or was speeding, got caught and this is how they chose to get out of it, or has no common sense whatsoever and should not be driving a car.
There were likely software failures.
@@dndbeyond3443 Not possible, after Toyota's floormat issues back in 2009, all manufacturers by 2012 have multiple decell integrated safety measures so this never happens. I work at a multi dealer shop and we have tried on many cars and it can't be done on any thing past those years, any type of failure like this will trigger the injectors to cut off and engine to go in to limp mode or shut off. Everyone saw what happened with Toyota and no one wants to deal with that. I 100% guarantee they will find nothing wrong with this car because it is not physically possible unless there was some kind of modification done to it after manufacturing. I think the kid was on the gas when they thought it was the brake, or they were speeding and thought this would get them out of it.
As ive said before we are so lucky to have HEROES for first responders!!!! HEROES!!!!!
Lol.
A different story stated that he did try neutral and to shut the vehicle off and nothing changed. This happened with a couple Toyota vehicles and a couple Prius' vehicles not that long ago.
I don't believe that story as reported. Putting the car in neutral AND shutting if off changed nothing...
The vehicle was a Honda
@doylefoust4802 good call... and it has happen with other manufacturers
Ths Toyotas were in 2011. Seems like yesterday but really 13 years ago
Stop it. If it's in neutral, then it's in neutral. These are electronic gear selectors. You need to apply brakes in order to activate neutral. The brake pressure will unlock the gear selector. In neutral, there's no gears. The torque converter is disconnected from your engine, so there's no power through your drive shaft. In order to turn the car off in case of an emergency, Honda built in another safety feature, you have to hold the stop start for 2 seconds for it to turn off. It's to prevent accidental shut off. Dispatch probably didn't know, so I don't blame them, but everyone should know the car they're driving. Read the owner's manual. Most of these stuff is in the owner's manual just incase there's an electronic malfunction.
I have seen the same thing happen on a wireless throttle sensor that went bad on a customers vehicle
It was a kid driving. He did amazing keeping it on the road
Amazing? He caused the entire situation. He couldn't get the car to stop yet another car in front of it could using its brakes? Nonsense
Fastest I've ever driven is 105mph.
The person did real well to hang in there at 113mph, in the dark.
A lot of people say put it in park/neutral but what if that lever is jammed.
Good job officers.
God bless the officer who saved his life.😮😮😮💕💕💕
Glad everyone is safe.
Awesome save guys thank you for saving this kid
Was it a floor mat issue ?
Great job! And ppl think we don't need LEO'S!❤❤❤
Damn thats crazy... 😐
Thank you to the officers who stopped him.
💙🙏🏽🚔
I felt that sigh he gave!
Absolutely terrifying
that moon was getting closer and closer lol! jeez absolute units
So there was this car…
…whose gas pedal just so happened to get stuck at 113 mph…
…at the same time the brakes just so happened to stop working…
…on a road that just so happened to be perfectly straight…
…at a time the road just so happened to be empty…
…ultimately requiring the help of police who just so happened to be nearby…
…and just so happened to wait several minutes before taking any meaningful action…
Nobody died.
Simulation confirmed.
That was the most bizarre pit maneuver I’ve ever seen
I’ve heard of these before and I have to call BS. How could they not turn the car off or override most of it with the brakes? It’s impossible that vehicle would do 100 miles per hour with the brakes on! Something is very fishy!
ever heard of the ignition switch?? there is a OFF position just a FYI
I would of gone and given the kid a hug.
*would've.
As in 'would have'.
There is no 'would of'.
Happened to me once in my 76 Camaro. Was scary as hell,full throttle on main st. In town....neutral,parking lot ,,,KEY OFF. 😊
Throttle return spring break?
Typical japanese build quality. They are known for this.
Turn key off. Neutral,
Would that be the key in the driver's pocket because this is a push button start? :)
Alotnof mouth breathers in here. The fucking car is all drive by wire, can't shut it off, can't put it in neutral, brake are wire controlled so when the system completely fails this is what happens.
Only in the middle of nowhere Minnesota 😂
In Cali there are plenty of places to hit before you reach even 30 mph.
What would cause that? Why not shut key off?
This seeems like a bunch of nonsense. Regular brakes dont work, parking brake doesnt work, and the car speeds up all on its own? But another car in front can stop it using its brakes? Im not buying it. No Sir.
Let me guess...Another tic toc challenge?
I thought maybe it was an electric "smart car". I think it's a gasser. He should have been able to slide it in neutral and let the engine blow, or shut the ignition off (which you have to be careful of as it may lock the steering wheel).
Are people really this mechanically inept? Apparently. Key off, thats why its there.
Turning off the engine makes you lose power steering. That is not a wise thing to do. It would be one of the very last resorts.
Power steering isn’t strictly needed when you are at speed, especially at 100MPH and you are a male teen boy - it’s for when you are in a par
king lot and as a creature comfort. Cars loose power steering all the time when the engine fails on the freeway, guess what, it starts slowing down and now your breaks will start to have effect. Now, if the steering system is 100% electric then yeah, you’re screwed. At least that’s the way I remember not having power steering when I was a kid. I don’t know why more people just don’t go to a parking lot and try turning off their car while moving and practice this stuff just once. I put my car and my friends and family cars through all these experiments as a curious kid. Many new cars don’t have a key to “turn off” and you don’t want to lock the steering wheel either but if you are going 100MPH into a T, I’d take my chance :-)
Many cars now do not have a physical key that can turn off the vehicle; it's push button with electronic transmission control. Apparently you're one of those that's inept
@@abandonedcranium6592 no it doesn't, there's always a residue power to help turn for these electric steering. The car will sense you trying to turn the wheel and will give minimal power. Your car is never fully off. There's so many sensors that are always on. Try leaving your car for a few weeks, you battery will run flat.
@@cruisinguy6024 go way troll. You clearly have no clue how a push button works. Press and hold and it kills the car. It's an emergency kill switch.
BS. I do not believe this unless there a level of stupidity not comprehensible to me.
Like yourself?
@@pdubb4 you must be one of those that have no clue about cars. Stick to your video games, kid. Maybe touch grass once in a while, or talk to a woman for once.
