## Narrative
Vehicle was involved in a double fatal. After viewing of dashcam video I suspect a malfunction of the vehicle may have occurred. The video appears to show the vehicle continuously accelerating despite the sound of what may be the driver attempting to repeatedly mash on the brakes. EDR records do not coincide with the dashcam video.
