High-speed junkie Ben loves nothing more than fast cars and thinks he’s hit the jackpot with his new job as a driver for a major corporation. His enthusiasm goes into a tailspin when he finds out that instead of screeching around in the company’s powerful car, he’ll be gently chauffeuring the boss’s young wife around. But during their very first drive, the car suddenly surges ahead …on its own! Ben has absolutely no more control over the careening sedan. It is being remote-controlled from somewhere else and both Ben and his hysterical passenger are trapped! They are victims of a high-tech kidnapping by an unseen criminal mastermind. When they make a daring attempt to escape their speeding prison, a warning explosion triggered by the kidnapper makes the point clear: they’re stuck in this four wheeled time bomb. The police meanwhile, see Ben at the wheel and are convinced that he is the kidnapper.
A gut wrenching high-speed chase ensues, tearing through congested city streets, down tiny, side-scraping alleyways and along dangerously twisting country roads. It’s a blood-chilling race against the clock…a clock in which any second could result in a missed turn, a blocked road or a terrible crash that would explode their uncontrollable car into a massive ball of flame…
