Stuck throttle?

I'm hoping someone can help me figure out the problem. was driving along about 35 mph, took my foot off the gas and the car increased speed like the throttle was stuck. had to apply the brakes. only seems to occur when i'm doing 35-40 mph Has anyone ever had that happen?

diagnosed the problem as a broken cruise control switch. it was broken in the on position, so replaced the switch and now no problem
