If you are driving down the highway or taking off from a stop and hit 3,000 RPM the car will stop accelerating and the gas pedal basically becomes non-responsive.

What happens if you run a car at 40 mph?
The engine will continue to rev as the car tries to accelerate above that speed, but the car will not be able to shift into gear for further speed.

Why is my engine rev so high while driving?

What’s the rev limit on a Silverado truck?
The truck starts and idles fine. Put it into gear and accelerate, you have to give it a significant amount of throttle to get it up to speed. If you put it to the floor, it won’t rev beyond 4000 RPM. At ~2500 RPM with only enough throttle to maintain speed (transmission manually shifted to 3rd gear), it will surge and hunt.
Why does my car not Rev above 2500rpm?
Well, as unbelievable as it may seem, after having the car (’82 GT with a 4bbl Holley) for almost a month, I just revved the engine above 2500RPM today. I was sitting in the garage with the car running thinking over my exhaust problem and decided to rev the engine up near the redline to see how it handled it.
When does the RPM go back to normal?
