I feel for the families, but things like this need to be objective and not emotional.

Sad, sad, sad situation with the Toyotas.

But, nonetheless, "... killed a California Highway Patrol officer ...", unless on duty, that statement is irrelevant.

You can feel sorry for the families, but people die every day in crashes. If you have a state of the art car, you should expect that there might be some problem every several million outings.

This is sad. I just hope there aren't fortune seekers out there who will try to take advantage of the lives that have been lost just to make a buck.

It will be interesting to see how Toyota recovers from this...Detroit better not pass up this opportunity to get back on their feet before Toyota does.

It would seem to me that a state highway patrol would be trained in this situation on what to do. There has to be more to it. But it works for more toyota slamming.

Neutral, brake, steer off the roadway, shut it off when safely stopped.

People die in cars with problems every year. These problems just aren't reported by the media as much as the Toyota problems.
