AIR BAGS
WHEN I WAS DRIVING IN MY SUBDIVISION IN A 25 MPH ZONE, THE CAR SUDDENLY GOT SELF ACCELERATED AND GOT BEYOND MY CONTROL. I TRIED TO PUSH THE BRAKE, THE BRAKE DID NOT WORK. THE CAR HIT ANOTHER CAR ON THE SIDE, AND WENT THROUGH FRONT YARDS OF TWO HOUSES AND THEN CROSSED THE ROAD AND HIT THE BRICK WALLS OF A /C CONDENSER UNIT OF ANOTHER HOUSE AT AN ELEVATION. THE CAR THEN STOPPED AFTER BREAKING THE UTILITY WALLS. I WAS THE DRIVER AND THERE WAS NO PASSENGER IN THE CAR. THE AIR BAG WAS NOT DEPLOYED (POPPED UP). THE CAR WAS TOTALED. *TR
