Consumer Description

ON THREE DIFFERENT OCCASIONS MY KNEE HAS ACCIDENTALLY HIT THE KEYS, CAUSING THE ENGINE TO SHUT OFF. MY WIFE HAS HAD THIS HAPPEN ONCE. I AM 6 FOOT 3 INCHES, MY WIFE IS 5 FOOT 6 INCHES. IN OTHER WORDS, NORMAL HEIGHTS. TWO OF THESE OCCASIONS HAVE BEEN ON A FREEWAY, GOING 65 MPH. LUCKILY TRAFFIC HAS BEEN LIGHT SO THERE HAS NOT BEEN AN ACCIDENT. HAD TRAFFIC BEEN HEAVIER, THIS COULD HAVE BEEN MUCH MORE SERIOUS. *JB
