description: I WAS TRAVELING ON THE FREEWAY AT 55 MPH, AS I EXITED AND TOUCHED THE BRAKES THE CAR WOULD NOT SLOW DOWN, THE CAR GAINED SPEED, I PUMPED THE BRAKES AND THE CAR CONTINUED TO GO FASTER, THE CAR WAS OUT OF CONTROL AND CRASHED INTO A WALL. I WAS SERIOUSLY INJURED AND FORTUNATELY NO ONE ELSE OR OTHER VEHICLE WAS INVOLVED. I AM LUCKY TO BE ALIVE. JUST PRIOR TO IMPACT I TURNED THE WHEEL TO THE LEFT CAUSING THE CAR TO HIT THE RIGHT FRONT FIRST THEN THE CAR FLIPPED OVER. ONLY THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG DEPLOYED. THE BRAKES WERE FAIRLY NEW WITH 70% BRAKE LINING REMAINING AND THE BRAKES HAD BEEN INSPECTED ONE WEEK PRIOR TO THE ACCIDENT. IT APPEARS TO BE A COMBINATION SPEED ACCELERATION AND BRAKE FAILURE. *TR
