I was driving around 3:00 pm when the car suddenly accelerated on its own. I slammed on the brakes, but the car continued to accelerate. I managed to put it in neutral and continued to apply the brakes. In the three weeks prior to this event, the engine revved as if the accelerator had been floored after I put it in park after driving home from work (it never happened after the drive to work which was in less traffic and took less time). It did not happen every time. My wife was with me on one occasion and experienced it also.
