I'll look for a link to the audio later, but NPR just played their interview with the President of Toyota NA on the subject of their recall. Well, the final question asked what owners should do if their gas pedal sticks. His answer?

Depress the brake pedal with both feet as hard as you can and put the car into neutral.

I'm not making this up.
