From: Tegger on
Thursday's paper, page A7.

Excerpts:

"Toyota is getting a lot of attention for sudden unintended acceleration,
but Ford Motor Co. has been the subject of more complaints with federal
regulators in the recent past. From 2004 to 2009, based on NHTSA data, Ford
has 2,806 complaints, compared with compared with Toyota's 2,515. General
Motors Co. had 1,192."

"Many, if not all, are pedal errors," said Richard Schmidt, a leading
expert on human error, said of Toyota's sudden-acceleration complaints."
