Your gas pedal sticks. What should you do?

  1. Reach down and pull the pedal up.
  2. Shift into a lower gear.
  3. Brake and shift to neutral.
  4. Turn the engine off at once.
Show answer

Correct answer: Brake and shift to neutral.

Neutral disconnects the engine from the wheels. Never reach down by hand, because you could lose control.
