Manufacturer's design oversight created a potentially fatal collision. Manufacturer's design includes travel of the brake pedal to positions lower than the accelerator pedal. This design oversight allows the driver's foot to travel lower than the accelerator pedal while braking. This results in the driver unknowingly pressing the accelerator pedal while applying the brakes. I was a victim of this design oversight but fortunately I responded quickly enough to avoid an accident. It could have been fatal to the pedestrian I was avoiding.
