I never understand why people dont just stamp on the brakes and turn the ignition off the moment these things happen. I know it must be fairly panicky at the time, but .................

That was fake, at the very least it was sped up some. Any idiot with half a brain would have stamped on the brake put the handbrake on and made a quick exit stage door right.
Nam e one Hyundai that cam move like that.

i have seen this happen a few times in the past and i know people have tried taking the keys out and stomping on the brakes but the car has just kept going. I think they were all autos too so the car would not let them do anything.Buy a proper gearbox and just stick the clutch pedal in and let the mtr blow up if the car wont turn off or try and stall it. i think Ford had problems with the Galaxy a few years ago all auto boxes too i think and i know it killed a few people too
