> My question is, why didn’t the people with the stuck gas pedals just turn the car off? Granted the pedal should NEVER get stuck and it is deff a problem for Toyota, but if some of those people had just simple turned the car off they may still be alive.

Because they don’t think with that mentality when things of that nature occur.

My 78 year old grandma bought a new Corolla and I am willing to bet that she wouldn’t know enough to turn the car off or even shift to N if the gas pedal got stuck.
