This happened to me today but I have also recently heard about another report of the same (facebook rav4 prime web page) I started the car, it had sufficient battery so was in -??EV-?? mode. I placed it in reverse with my foot on the brake pedal. I waited a couple seconds for one reason or another and with my foot still firmly on the brake pedal it started moving in reverse. I pushed the brake pedal extraordinarily hard and the car stopped after a few feet. No incident precipitated from this but I-??m keenly aware of the potential. At the moment I can-??t reproduce it.

The Toyota pre-collision braking system is too slow to release control of the throttle back to the driver. Multiple times it has made the car behave in an unexpected fashion in traffic. The most common scenario is when the driver is stopped and turning left onto a busy street. When a car passes in front of you and you try to accelerate after it passes, the pre-collision braking still thinks there's a car in front of you. Instead of acceleration your car just gently rolls into the street. The driver can't do anything in the moment to override it. The car behaves almost as if the engine has died and you're just slowly rolling into oncoming cross-traffic. I have owned the car for ~2 months, and both I and my wife have experienced multiple such incidents. Any of them could have caused an accident if the oncoming traffic weren't paying attention and braked. It's easily replicated but requires that the car passing in front of you be relatively close (~10 feet).
