What's actually going on here? Suicide, and he wanted to take his

Automatic, keyless ignition.

An auto box without a neutral position on the selector?

wouldn't stop if you stood on the footbrake in 5th. Thereagain there are
some people who are too daft to try turning off the ignition or puttung
the car into neutral.
