A nurse apprentice, who had a bad day at work, meets a computer programmer at a car garage. The man is urged to go somewhere...
The car is stuck in gear, pedal to the floor, zooming down the freeway at 80 miles per. At first the Highway Patrol assumes Jenny (Nina Siemaszko) is just a reckless scofflaw and quickly engages in a pursuit. But Ed (Judge Reinhold) suddenly remembers he has a mobile phone and dials 911, letting the cops in on their predicament. So now the cops have to figure out a safe way to resolve the situation.
