Possible design defect - location of pcv hose & clamp to fuel throttle linkages exchange. While accelerating onto highway, accelerator pedal became stuck to floor at full throttle. Was stuck for ten minutes. Reached 5,000 rpms and 80 MPH. Avoided fatal crash only because fuel throttle linkages control became dislodged from pcv hose clamp. Toyota engineer verified that throttle exchange became stuck on pcv hose clamp.
