Narrative

I COULD NOT GO LEFT OR RIGHT BECAUSE CARS WERE IN BOTH LANES. I HIT CAR IN FRONT. THE OFFICER VERIFIED THAT THE CAR WAS IN SPEED MOTION WITH NO SCREECHES OR MARK IN STREET. THE OFFICER STATED THAT MY CAR WAS IN NORMAL SPEED MOTION. THE AIR BAGS DEPLOYED AND MY SISTER AND I WERE INJURED. THE CAR I HIT PASSENGERS WAS OK. THIS ACCIDENT WAS CAUSED BY BRAKE FAILURE.
