    but everything happened so fast na its difficult to decide on what to do na.
    Mythbusters tried this one.. The car would just coast when put into reverse or park during such speed.

    put the gear in N, R or P. pull hard on the hand brake and IF the foot brake still works, stand on it (sabi sa ibang forums the footbrake does nothing during these SUS instances).
    last resort is to put the gear in N and switch off the engine, then try to start it again with the vehicle still moving. stopping the engine results to loss of power steering and brakes so you should only switch it off when all else fails. you'll need to start it again to regain power steering and brakes.

    ^as important as GPS trackers. madami na mabibili ngayon thru the internet.. I like the Bullet HD type as a substitute for the more expensive GoPro & Contour models..

    Nangyayari din ba itong SUA sa mga auto na walang cruise control?

    Here are a couple of Kia K5's (of course, Hyundai owns Kia) that appears to have the SUA bug.

    No audio:



    Same model, different car. You can hear the driver seemingly stomping on something. It could be the brakes or the accelerator pedal (maybe he's trying to free it, thinking that it's physically stuck).
