RSS1684 Hyundai in the US has announced that it is fitting brake pedal electronic throttle override capability on all models well before government mandates come into effect.
The US government mandate for brake pedal throttle override capability, a component of FMVSS 124 (Accelerator Control Systems), has been under consideration by the834 National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).

Beginning with May 2012 production, the company has announced that fully 100 per cent of all US Hyundai models now provide the assuring safeguard of brake pedal throttle override capability many months and possibly years before the final government mandate, if approved.
