Question: What should you do if your accelerator pedal sticks while driving?

Answer options: ✅ Shift to neutral and apply the brakes.

  • Turn off the engine immediately while moving at high speed.
  • Pull the parking brake as hard as possible.
  • Shift into a lower gear and pump the gas pedal.

Correct answer: Shift to neutral and apply the brakes.

Explanation: If the accelerator sticks, shifting to neutral disconnects the engine from the wheels, allowing you to slow down without the engine continuing to push the vehicle forward. Over-revving the engine is a secondary concern compared to stopping safely.
