Default Scary experience

On Friday on the motorway (doing 40 in roadworks) I went to accelerate gently and there was no response. I looked down at the pedal and saw the brake pedal hit the floor by itself. The car stopped dead and caused a pileup behind me.

The police are investigating by getting the ecu downloaded. At the time there was no error message. Does anyone know what information they can get from the ecu? I am afraid that if it is not conclusive volvo may not take action and other people may be at risk. I am not trying to be scaremongering, but I like many others wanted this car partly for its safety reputation and this has freaked me out.

Has anyone heard of it happening to anyone else?
