Narrative

My Steering went suddenly stiff making it extermely hard to turn, this resulted to my truck clipping/crashing into the front side of a parked commercial vehicle. My car rolled over and me and my passenger was injured. The truck was inspected and the technicians final conclusion was that the accident took place because the electronic power steering lost communication.
