Not supposed to kill the engine because you lose power brakes and risk engaging the steering lock.

Toss it in neutral....listen to that engine bounce of the rev limiter as you move to a safe spot to stop, kill the engine and find the problem.
good point, I forgot about power steering/brake loss if you turn the key too far. Probably would of ended better than accelerating to whatever they got to though. A wreck at 50 mph would of been a lot softer than the 190 km/h or 118 mph they reported...
