In 1991, a North Carolina jury awarded $15 million in compensatory and punitive damages to the family of Henry James, a nursing home patient who died a painful death from terminal metastatic prostate cancer…

Every year thousands of patients suffer needlessly, over an extended period of time because of ignorance and stupidity.

You have to wonder why this is happening, there are so many things that happen in the name of the war on drugs, but in reality this has become a war on the people.

There are dozens of cases where people who have terminal illness have had to go to the street to obtain pain medication, imagine that suffering from pain knowing you are dieing and then being arrested for purchasing street drugs because you cannot get a prescription for pain medication.

It seems like a nightmare, but for too many people it is a reality.

The painful truth is that some people report that it is easier and cheaper to obtain pain medication on the street than it is to go to a doctor and get it legally.

It is evil, because they know a few things about the DEA and how the war on Drugs has decimated the population of prescribing doctors, thousands of doctors licenses have been allegedly revoked by medical boards, often run by under educated doctors, that no longer practice medicine and who may not be professional at all.

Now you might have to wonder about how this could happen in America, well just watch the headlines, or better yet, do a search on the internet,

The jury found that a nurse’s refusal to administer the opioid analgesics necessary to relieve Mr James’s pain, on the rationale that he would become addicted, constituted a gross departure from acceptable care. Significantly, no disciplinary action was forthcoming for either the nurse or the facility.

You know this is horrible, Why is this allowed to go on in a nation where we are supposed to be free, people cannot get medication because of the war on drugs has become the war on the people.

Because it is easier to put people in jail than it is to put dangerous drug dealers in jail.

Doctors find it easier to pay a lawsuit off then to risk their license, being revoked.

Think about that, if you find your self in a desperate situation, you or someone you love might have to suffer because a doctor is afraid of prescribing a opioid analgesic, they are afraid of the medical board and the DEA.

They are right to be afraid, but should America have to suffer because of the paranoia, of a few people?

In 1998, William Bergman was admitted to Eden Medical Center in Castro Valley, California, in severe pain. Dr Wing Chin became his physician. Important details surrounding his 5-day hospitalization are in dispute between the Bergman family and those who cared for him. The hospital records indicate that at some point each day Mr Bergman’s pain was rated between 7 and 10 on a 10-point pain intensity scale, 10 being the worst pain imaginable. On the day of his discharge, a pain level of 10 appears in the medical record. Although a definitive diagnosis was not reached, a chest radiograph, combined with a long history of smoking, was strongly suggestive of lung cancer. Mr Bergman declined further tests, wishing to go home and receive hospice care. He died within a week of discharge.

Cases like these are beginning to be the normal mode of operation.

Could you be allegedly driving a death trap, every time you get behind the wheel of your car could it be your last time?

Toyota will we know the truth or will they continue to allegedly hide the truth.

What can you do if you suspect you have a vehicle with pedal problems, first you can contact.

There are some official places you can go and you can file complaints with the FTC and the national safety
transportation board for starters, but really will that keep you safe…

Is there a third recall for linkage problems that toyota has yet to acknowledge?

Could people be injured and or die if this is the truth.

Toyota, alleged dealers hide the truth from owners?  Why would a dealer not say a single word about a recall when the owner comes in for service?   What is wrong with this picture, we came in for service and the dealer says not a word that there could be a problem where I might Die?

In what kind of stupid world does someone live in that does this type of thing?

If that does not make you angry, consider this, they really think that spending a few million bucks on a Public Relations or public image campaign will help gain back their trust.  Your kidding right, man that is shallow, they had a movie a while back called shallow Hal, that is sort of the way I feel about toyota, words like allegedly defiled, raped, lied to, and then expected to forgive and forget after being offered a free car wash?   Man I thought toyota was smarter than that, are they not?

—————————————————————————————————-

Could Toyota be hiding yet another recall?   Could they be hiding the truth about what the cause of the problem actually is?

This is not legal advise…..

For one thing, the idea that the floor mat is the cause of an engineering  over sight, is well sort of like advocating a screen door on a submarine…

Sounds sort of ignorant right, yet Toyota will spend millions on Public Relations firms, and commercials, typical alleged, guilty behavior.

So what is really going on allegedly…

There are a lot of possibilities, however one thing for sure there is a problem and we have seen it first hand…

Well apparently, the preverbal stuff has hit the fan and allegedly toyota is not fessing up to all the problems that are occurring.
Are we  Say safe in our own cars?

Some say yes, other say no…

I can tell you that if your experience was anything like my experience with toyota then you are in for a rough ride.

On a number of occasions, we visited our toyota dealership, for our regular maintenance, where they cheerfully charged us full price to change the oil and do other unknown things, usually for over 100 usd, the last one was 189 usd, but did they bother to let us know that we were driving a potential death trap?   That Ah, would be a big fat no…

Amazing really, they can charge us for taking care of our vehicle, in fact the maintenance is mandatory if you want to keep your extended warranty in force, but they cant tell us about a potential lethal problem?

Let me tell you that is scary folks…

This is certainly something close to a nightmare for Toyota, in the recent recall madness, where the dealers are pitted against the owners, and the finance companies are pitted against the dealers, and allegedly the manufacturer pitted against the lawyers. Make no mistake about it, there are a lot of problems with these cars, Real Valid Safety concerns, some say that the government in the form of the DOT and the FTC are having a conflicted interest in this issue however, after my own very real safety issue, (notice I did not say a concern) this was a real issue.

This really happened, and while I cannot say if this was due to accelerator pedal entrapment with regard to the floor mats, (a less and less likely event as time goes by) or if this was due to a linkage problem, (more likely from an engineering perspective, a very non toyota perspective) in fact we own one of these vehicles, which to date allegedly toyota is not willing to even admit that there is a problem nor are they willing to state how they plan on fixing the problem.

We know there is a problem with this toyota camry, because we have experienced it first hand, or foot so to speak.

In a Terrifying event where the vehicle stuck with the accelerator linkage wide open for a period of several seconds, which resulted in a near miss accident and a change of clothing, for the driver…

This is a serious problem and when you have a company that is not willing to do the right thing and either fix the problem or buy the car back then there are real problems ahead for this company.

When a company is willing to spend millions and millions of dollars in PR relations, double entendre intended, then it is time to call an attorney…

If you have had an accident involving a toyota in any of the mentioned toyota vehicles.

Then you may need to get a lawyer…

Here are some of the problems we have had with our 2009 toyota camry,

1. Sticking wide open linkage and or entrapment, of the pedal mechanism.
2. delayed sticking linkage, at less than 30 MPH
3. delayed surge at idle during cruise control.
4. surge at less than 10 MPH with brake applied.
5. inertia during de-acceleration or sudden loss of power during cruise control

While most of these issues can be easily controlled, with some forethought, and some pre-planning but I can tell you from actual experience that this is easier to say than it is to do, as a professional driver with more than 30 years of safe driving experience, I can tell you that I nearly had an accident while this concern happened to me.

The problem is that toyota is allegedly not doing the right thing…

They are not even saying the linkage word and that is where the problem allegedly is…

Let me say that louder, LINKAGE>>>  PEOPLE<

Be very careful when driving these cars, be on the lookout for trouble, just because someone tells you that your car is not involved in the toyota recall does not mean there is no problem.

Believe me there is a problem, at least in my own very personal experience.

I would say that while I cannot offer you advice on this issue, please do seek professional advice if you feel you are driving an unsafe vehicle, you may need help in finding a lawyer, if so please see our resource pages for those types of attorneys.

As many of you have heard, this is a terrifying situation to find yourself, not only that but it can happen so quickly that you may not even realize that you are in a potentially life or death struggle with your own car…
