TIG Brother Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 It's possible that she had pulled in to the service area and had not selected neutral. After pulling in the clutch to come to a stop she then released the clutch thinking the car was in neutral, anti stall kicks in and instantly gives the car 50% throttle, which in turn surged the car forwards into the tail lift of the truck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
