WHILE TURNING ON AN OFF RAMP THE STEERING GAVE OUT AND LOCKED, CAUSING THE CAR TO DRIVE DIRECTLY INTO THE GUARD RAIL. YES THE CAR WAS MOVING BUT STEALTHILY AS I SLOWED DOWN TO MAKE THE TURN. THE CAR WAS THROWN FROM THE LEFT GUARD RAIL TO THE RIGHT SIDE CAUSING EXTENSIVE DAMAGE AND NO AIRBAG DEPLOYED IN THE EVENT OF THIS CRASH. THE CAR WAS NO LONGER ABLE TO MOVE FROM SUCH A DRASTIC ACCIDENT AND YET IT WAS NOT ENOUGH FOR THE AIRBAGS TO EVEN ATTEMPT TO SAVE OUR LIVES. THERE WERE KIDS IN THE CAR! THANK THE HEAVENS WE WERE ABLE TO GET OUT OF THE WRECK ALIVE. ONE WHEEL WAS TURNED INWARD AS IT ATTEMPTED TO TURN WHILE THE RIGHT FRONT WHEEL STAYED STRAIGHT. IT WAS A NIGHTMARE AND WE ARE ALL STILL SHAKEN UP BY THIS.
