Peddle/pedal


Two problems exist with the description of this episode. "Peddle" should be "pedal." Peddle means to sell something. A pedal is something you could use to stop a bus. A second error is in the use of the word "with." I am not sure of the meaning since I have not seen this episode. Depending upon the meaning, either "with" should be omitted or the sentence should be rewritten so that the object of the preposition "with" follows the preposition "with." For example, "The kids cause an accident after a fruit with which they were racing gets caught under the brake pedal."
