Consumer Description

TURNED INTO PARKING SPACE. CAR BEGAN ACCELERATING ON ITS OWN. I APPLIED THE BRAKES CONTINUOUSLY, THREW THE CAR INTO PARK TO NO AVAIL. THE CAR JOLTED FORWARD, CRASHING INTO THE STOREFRONT, BREAKING GLASS WINDOWS. THE (APPROX) 2 FEET OF BLOCK WALL STOPPED THE CAR. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT IN MY CONTROL IN SPITE OF ALL EFFORT TO BRING THE CAR TO A STOP. HAD SOMEONE BEEN WALKING ON THE SIDEWALK IN FRONT OF THE STORE (SALON), I WOULD HAVE BEEN POWERLESS TO KEEP FROM INJURING OR KILLING THEM. THIS WAS NOT DRIVER ERROR. I WAS FULLY "IN THE MOMENT," AND AWARE OF WHAT WAS HAPPENING. *TR
