They are referring to the driver's side floormat not being secured anchored (despite hooks) where somehow the floor mat interfered with the accelerator pedal...causing the Toyota to continue in its forward motion despite the driver applying the brake pedal attempting to stop.
Note on Toyota factory mats (normally option/upgrade) the front ones have 2 holes on one end where the anchors hook & restrain the floormat from movement. Of course, some owners would rather buy generic floormats elsewhere to incl auto parts stores, Walmart, Target etc
Hope the Above Info Helps!
