N2  - The difficulty in reconstructing unintended acceleration accidents stems from the fact that during the investigation of such cases, the accident reconstructionist is often times left with only minimal physical evidence which may or may not include substantial damage to the vehicle as well as its surroundings, along with often emotional testimony from the driver. In the analysis of the accident that is the subject of this article, however, the investigators were also granted the luxury of having photographic documentation of probably the most important physical evidence left at any accident scene: the vehicle's tire marks. Investigators concluded that the vehicle in this accident was subjected to a continuous acceleration input over which was superimposed a braking input. This finding was consistent with physical evidence left at the scene as well as damage to the vehicle.<p />
