I think saying that Toyata drivers should just bake is an over simplified statement, as econo box cars generally don't have great tires, so only a limited amount of brake force can be applied before the tire gives up, and if the engine is still running, you have to overcome all that force just to maintain the same speed, let alone slow the car down. And you would probably very quickly cook the brake pads in a Toyota, making them useless.

That's why the key is to get the car into neutral first.
