ON 11/18/13, AT APPROXIMATELY 5:15 PM, I WAS HEADING DOWN A STREET TO MAKE A LEFT TO GO HOME FROM WORK. ALL OF A SUDDEN THE CAR ACCELERATED AND WOULD NOT SLOW DOWN AFTER I PUSHED DOWN ON THE BRAKE WITH MY RIGHT FOOT. I IMMEDIATELY BEGAN TO TURN THE WHEEL TO THE RIGHT ONTO AN EMPTY STREET TO AVOID TWO OTHER CARS AT THE INTERSECTION WHO WERE GOING TO MAKE THE SAME LEFT I ORIGINALLY WANTED TO MAKE. FOR SOME REASON, THE CAR DID NOT GO ALL THE WAY RIGHT AND WENT DIAGONALLY FROM THE INTERSECTION ACROSS THE STREET. THE CAR THEN JUMPED A CURB HITTING AN ELECTRICAL POLE. AT THAT POINT, I WAS PULLED OUT OF THE CAR BY ANOTHER DRIVER WHO SAW THE INCIDENT BECAUSE WHEN HITTING THE POLE, LIVE WIRES WERE DANGLING FROM THE POLE. I WAS TAKEN ACROSS THE STREET AWAY FROM THE CAR AND WAITED FOR POLICE AND PARAMEDICS TO COME. *TR
