 Description of the problem2007 toyota tacoma sua (sudden unintended acceleration) my incident started from a near standstill with my right foot firmly on the brake. As a formally trained observer and troubleshooter of aircraft electronic systems, it is my opinion that this vehicle delivered uninitiated stimulus to the electronic throttle control system. I am 100% positive about this finding as i personally experienced this failure with a clear mind and excellent vantage point. I was finally able to stop this vehicle after violent and aggressive braking was applied while contacting a cement picnic table. This finally occurred just short of a 267 foot cliff/hill pointing into a reservoir. This is my second entry into the nhtsa database concerning the unintended acceleration of a 2007 toyota tacoma. I have now been through the entire toyota process and have had all recalls and investigations performed. Damage from the accident due to sua has been repaired. Toyota findings were conclusive. "could not duplicate". This means they do not have to do anything at all. I have to date engaged in extensive research of this phenomenon and i am shocked as to the findings recently announced by ray lahood and nasa that exonerates electronics as a possible issue. I have been supporting, maintaining and troubleshooting electronic problems since 1980 and consider myself a credible professional technician. This was definitely an electronic ghost in the machine.
