ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL
I WAS PULLING OUT OF PARKING SPOT IN REVERSE IN A CROWDED MOVIE THEATER PARKING LOT WHEN MY 2011 HONDA CR-V ACCELERATED AT FULL SPEED INTO THE CEMENT POLE BEHIND ME. CONFUSED, I PUT THE CAR IN 'DRIVE' TO PULL MYSELF AWAY FROM THE POLE, WHEN THE CAR ONCE AGAIN ACCELERATED AT FULL SPEED FORWARD TOWARD THE SPOT I WAS ORIGINAL IN HITTING AND CONTINUALLY PUSHING A PARKED MINI-VAN, WHICH IN TURN PUSHED AND KEPT PUSHING THE PARKED CAR NEXT TO IT. IN AN ATTEMPT TO STOP THE CAR, I PUT THE CAR IN REVERSE AND ONCE AGAIN WENT IN REVERSE, CRASHING INTO THE SAME CEMENT POLE. DESPITE THE FACT THAT I BORE DOWN ON THE BRAKES REPEATEDLY, THE CAR DID NOT STOP UNTIL I PUT THE CAR IN 'PARK". IMMEDIATELY THEREAFTER, I TURNED THE CAR OFF. THIS ALL OCCURRED IN SECONDS AND WAS TERRIFYING...I HAD NO CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. WITNESSES IN THE MOVIE THEATER PARKING LOT WERE STOPPED IN THEIR TRACKS HEARING THE LOUD ROAR OF THE ENGINE. *TR
