Skoda? It's a pretty big seller world-wide.
The article has a list of the stuff he tried. It wouldn't enter neutral. Turning the engine off just made a weird noise. You might be right that he should have held it longer. Which, in my opinion, is a shitty design (looking at you, Crapple). If there's a timer, sure. But asking me to estimate 5 vs 8 seconds in a panic? Nah... He was afraid to pull the emergency brake, which I would class as an error.
Not sure how you train for this kind of problem....
