GAS PEDAL GOT CAUGHT ON A PIECE OF CARPET WHICH CAUSED MY CAR TO ENTER INTO AN INTERSECTION ON A RED LIGHT AND CAUSED ME TO HAVE AN ACCIDENT. WHICH THEN MADE MY INSURANCE JUMP. I REMEMBER THIS DAY VERY WELL IT WAS THE DAY BEFORE MY BIRTHDAY I CAME UP TO THE RED LIGHT AND STOPPED THE CAR SEEM TO WANT TO KEEP MOVING FORWARD AS I PUT MY FOOT ON THE BREAK IT WAS STILL A RED LIGHT MY CAR WAS MOVING FORWARD CARS WERE BEEPING AT ME AS I KEPT INCHING INTO THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET MY CAR WAS HIT IN THE REAR PASSENGER SIDE BY ANOTHER MUSTANG. I EXPLAIN TO THE POLICE OFFICER THAT WHAT SEEM TO HAPPEN WAS MY CARPET SEEM TO HAVE GOTTEN CAUGHT ON THE GAS PEDAL. AFTER LATER LEARNING THAT THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THAT PARTICULAR PROBLEM IT WASN'T RE CALLING UNDER MY VIN. TO THIS DAY I HAVE AN ACCIDENT MARK ON MY INSURANCE WHICH MADE MY BILL GO UP I DON'T THINK THAT THIS IS FAIR CONSIDERING THAT IT WAS NOT MY FAULT I TRIED SHOWING THE INSURANCE COMPANY THAT THERE WAS A RECALL BUT IT WASN'T RECALLING UNDE...
