When really you can't make any such statement without the numbers. "Some" is not a number. This article basically says nothing at all.

NHTSA investigation concluded that
74 out of 75 cases were due to driver error. The one remaining case was due to a faulty floor mat. ZERO percent were due to a faulty accelerator system. Heard on the Mark Levin show, no link.
