## Narrative
While traveling in the left hand lane I was hit on the right side pushing me into a median. I applied the brakes and they didn’t stop the vehicle. When the van came into contact with the curb. The airbags deployed. I smelt smoke and told my 4 young children in the back seat we needed to get out now. Two of my children were in 5 pt harness car seats in the third row. We were able to run to a safe area before it went up in flames less than a few mins later.   There were no witnesses and no one around. My children and I could of been seriously injured or worse.   No warning lights were active. No signs of failure until I tried pressing the brakes.   The vehicle was inspected by the fire department that arrived on scene when it was fully engulfed in flames at that point.
