Great to hear that no damage was done and that new cars have a built in system that prevents one from over revving the engine. Certainly, something I hope I won’t be doing accidentally again!
To answer the prior question, my guess is that I had my foot on the pedal for about 10-20 seconds, before I realized what was happening. The drive thru bank teller was in a tunnel, so it was very dark and obviously I wasn’t paying attention to the position of my foot, while I was parked waiting. Luckily, I had shifted the car into PARK, as I had difficulty estimating the distance between the capsule and the brick walls on both sides of the car, as I entered the tunnel. Honestly, I was more concerned about damaging the exterior of my new car, since I just got rid of my 10 year old minivan. The last thing I anticipated was revving up the engine due to my misplaced foot. Probably won’t be going to that drive-thru again anytime soon.
Many thanks!
