Narrative

The accident happened on 12/28/22. At 8:50 am, I was picking up a friend and was leaving the parking lot. My friend got in and and then opened the door to lock it again . My foot was on the gas pedal trying to leave the parking lot. The car jumped and went to the opposite side. I turned the steering wheel to keep it from hitting an object but could not get any control on the car. The car kept accelerating and I had to put the car back into park to stop the car. The acceleration was so much that the car jumped the curb and stopped by a wall. The air bags opened up.
