FTA: "This similarity lies not only in the large amplitudes of the two signals, but also in the similarity of the two rise times; namely, a slow one lasting for about 0.8 seconds followed by a faster one that rises to a maximum in less than a half a second. Are we to believe that two drivers of different sexes and in two entirely different driving situations could press the accelerator pedal inadvertently at · almost exactly the same rates of movement with a slow depression first followed by a faster· occurring at almost the same time later?"

This seems easily explainable by someone pressing on the "brake" (actually accelerator) slowly, then panicked slamming on the "brake". Not sure what'd be strange about that at all.

Not saying there isn't any there there, but seems like it could be explained pretty easily.
