Description of the problem	The car was operated by mother who was in a parking lot about to finalize a full parking of it. All of a sudden, her words were "it shot off like a bullet" and she did not know what was happening. It felt like it was going 100 mph and she did everything under her control not to hit another vehicle or 3 pedestrians. The pedestrians saw what was happening and ran, one was hit, not seriously. Police and rescue were called. The johnston, rhode island police department impounded the car. The car will be inspected probably on june 26 by the ri department of motor vehicles enforcement division. They will determine whether the car is "fit" to drive or "unfit" to drive. It was a scary situation. The car is brand new. I am the owner of it, i bought it in december 2005, it had not yet been delivered to the dealers lot. I picked it up a week after initiating my purchase. It's a 2006 toyota matrix, all wheel drive. *jb
