I have one of the recalled Toyota vehicles (2010 Highlander). You can bet your ass that I practiced shifting to neutral while accelerating on the highway and in town as soon as I heard about the recall. Shifting to neutral is possible at 75 and flooring it. Also possible to shift to neutral when flooring it from a dead stop at a stop light.
The accelerator assembly is a rather bulky box under the pedal. Definitely a mechanical & electronic interface.
I am unconvinced as to the issue being resolved, but in the case of unintended acceleration I think I should be able to bring the vehicle to a stop.
It would be fairly simple to create a partition with an OS image that you could kick off on a schedule. Resetting the system back to known good in less than an hour.
The PBS link points to a study that is totally unrelated to your statement. The article in the link states that there is a positive affect on your well being if those around you have had the vaccination (and you haven't).

A rather appropriate statement.

At a guess - the spelling was intentional....
Repeat offenders would be better served by something more permanent than incarceration.
