She either took her foot off the brake or stepped on the gas and it fired up and drove off the boat, just like it would have if she was pulling away from a traffic light that turned green. A wheel chock or net wouldn’t have prevented this.

That would be an interesting twist. I'm not sure it would work for that time period? Our Macan has it. The worst, most gimmicky bit of technology. My wife keeps it turned off.
