Completely agree that standards are very strict. That's why they're rare. But code are written by humans, and mistakes happen.

Remember the hundreds of Toyota acceleration cases? They attributed it all to faulty pedals or floor mats. But multiple lines of evidence has come out that the ECU code had a critical flaw and at least some were attributed to that malfunctioning.

ECU-related SUAs are more common than you think.

Apologies, I meant hundreds of chips. Edited

Everyone's saying it's panic hit-the-gas, which likely, but there are documented cases of cars uncontrollably accelerating without the accelerator pedal being depressed at all.

It happens when the voltage to the ECU fluctuates so much that it bugs out and gets stuck sending a 100% accel signal to the engine. Cars these days are governed by hundreds of chips and have numerous electronic components, so makes sense that they glitch from time to time.

The OP cited a paper that this modeling was based on. It's both in the image and in the comments.

This data was deduced from DNA methylation patterns, which is just one way of measuring age. Maybe another model can be developed also taking into account various factors, such as fertility.

Been there multiple times for setups. Nice dude and does a good job.
