Let them not and their accelerator pedal getting stuck is a common problem with JLR cars. Not sure about the brakes.JLR would be able to sue him for defamation as well
it is fair when it IS the problem. But when you try to tarnish someone else's name in order to save your arse it can be seen as defamationLet them not and their accelerator pedal getting stuck is a common problem with JLR cars. Not sure about the brakes.
To be honest I think for the most part he had a sensible conversation with the guy, regardless of his EV stance. Think it's quite interesting to have that kind of interview and listen to what the guy had to say.but that youtuber (he is actually anti EV...) ended up releasing another video, stating that "oops, I was had"...
JLR do a pretty good job defaming their own brand these days without needing the help of others lolI wonder if JLR would be able to sue him for defamation as well
Ah I quite like them and feel somewhat bad for them that insurance costs are also probably negatively affecting their sales at the moment. Of course they get all the jokes about reliability but I like a lot of what they put out. Would be sad if they ever vanished.JLR do a pretty good job defaming their own brand these days without needing the help of others lol
You'd think the torque of a heavy EV accelerating against the breaks of a lighter ICE car would quickly heat up those brakes and cause issues for that police car. Guess it depends how long they were trying to do this for.I sensed the possibility during the second incident that the police car ahead was applying brakes to slow the pair of vehicles to 90 mph as described. However, that does not preclude the driver behind with foot to floor on what he thought/claimed was the brake actually being the accelerator.
I am not sure, why are you asking this? He is/was lying and he is now in police custody for reckless driving and causing public nuisance.You'd think the torque of a heavy EV accelerating against the breaks of a lighter ICE car would quickly heat up those brakes and cause issues for that police car.

I still don't get why he says 90 -100mph? I don't think he said he went up to 120mph and was stuck at that speed even before the police got there.
No. there is no luck. it is pure bellend driving at 90-100 mph. nothing more.Also he had this happen twice, both times only as he goes onto a motorway. Bit lucky it didn't just do it in a 30mph or anywhere else...
Personally I have a very strong nut allergy.Sounds like the only issue was with the nut behind the wheel.
Well my point is if you want to claim the car is stuck with the throttle open, you need to drive it up to its VMAX. Otherwise the story just doesn’t hold true which as you say it doesn’t as he got arrested over it.I am not sure, why are you asking this? He is/was lying and he is now in police custody for reckless driving and causing public nuisance.

there is no issue with car - there is issue with driver's brains.
I know, was just joking. Not enough room in the jails for such a petty crime. I believe they are having to give murderers community service these days so they have enough space for the most serious crimes of all, serial killers and the number one crime of all... Failing to pay HMRC the correct amount of taxNo jail time to be had here and all the anti EV conspiracy theorists will claim he was victimised by us lot.
Me thinks he doth protest to much.....the number one crime of all... Failing to pay HMRC the correct amount of tax
