I should add that they're now saying he was going 50-60mph. An accidental hit of the gas pedal doesn't get a 2019 Toyota 4Runner to 60mph that quickly. Does it? That takes considerable acceleration.

It also so horrifying to see that he went diagonally across the store not the short way, right across as I thought. He ended up in the wall, right by the door that serves as the emergency exit and leads to the back rooms and offices. He pinned several people, including a construction worker who had been working back there and was killed in this incident.

I believe it was a current gen (2019) 4runner which has a fairly ancient engine and transmission that's been due for a refresh for years. They don't accelerate very quickly by modern standards.
