On a steep hill it should roll almost instantly. How not notice the car rolling. Also why would you put in neutral, that

You REALLY think someone would choose this method for a suicide? A freak accident doesn't seem more plausible?
Why do something that, if unsuccessful, would bring about unimaginable pain and life altering disfigurement?
What's going on? What's all this shouting? We'll have no trouble here -

Good question OP, but there's a lot of things to take into account.
What was his neighborhood section like in terms of noise? Was his drive way right on the edge of a decent influx of traffic, where the constant sounds of cars would make it so that he wouldn't hear his own car rolling toward him?
Was somebody mowing the lawn nearby, drowning out the mild noise of his car rolling toward him?
Was somebody near him playing loud music?
Did Anton have an iPod in his ears?
Was it windy enough out to cause some noise or distraction to take away Anton's concentration?
ETC ETC.
Bare in mind that a car rolling (How fast did it roll???) isn't going to make near as much noise as if someone was pressing on the gas.
Sh***y way to go. -

The ignorance is mind blowing. A car rolling in neutral is not loud. Ask your non common sense self thisIF HE HEARDIT, DON'T YOU think he'd HAVE AVOIDED IT?
wow, just seriously wow. Use your head man. Tell me you're not that ignorant. -

people slip up. there are only so many hours in the damn day so you are in a rush, you live in a crowded city with far too many people you have to get your damn mail and probably get to your next damn appointment because you are an in-demand actor who may not be one day so you can't screw that up so you cut corners where you shouldn't and you end up paying the price. life is far too hard. for everybody.

It's most likely a tragic accident. If you leave a vehicle on a steep incline there's a small chance it can roll backwards so you have to be ultra careful to make sure the handbrake/parking brake is on.
I parked my former car and forgot to put the handbrake on. It rolled down the street and hit a lamp post. Thankfully it didn't hit an incoming car!
The strange thing is the road was fairly flat but the car still rolled back. I know from bitter experience what happens if you leave a car roll back. It's just tragic this guy was in the path of his vehicle. -

I seriously hope you are not insinuating any foul play. You would have to be paranoid schizophrenic or have an incredibly low IQ to think that. It doesn't take much to think about how ridiculously unlikely that would be. Not to mention next to impossible. There are about 1,000 easier ways to off someone. This would be something straight out of a Hitman video game.

sometimes its too fast to react

There's easier ways to go, even using a car
so you want your last moments to be suffocating and not being able to breath
hey_o
When learning to drive, I was taught that when you park your car on any steep slope, turn the front wheels slightly to the side before turning off your vehicle or selecting parking brakes. So if the vehicles starts rolling by itself, it will instantly turn to one of the sides.
good suggestion too bad its not taught in drivers ed

Maybe he got out to check a problem with the jeep on the back end i.e tires exhaust. Car started to roll he seen this had to run for the gate to try jump over it as from what i seen the drive way is small enough and the jeep sounded pretty massive so only wada0y was over the Gate ran to the gate was to slow and the jeep crushed him.

I'm guessing he stopped his car to check the mail, got out and went to the mailbox and didn't notice the car rolling towards him until it pinned him up against the mailbox. Way too many people looking for sinister reasons that this occurred. Just a simple mistake that Anton made and it cost him his life. That's too bad because I liked him. Always hoped he would do some more Odd Thomas movies.
