Consumer Description

DURING DAYLIGHT ON THE ABOVE DATE, AS I MADE A TURN FROM SMALL PARKING LOT INTO A PARKING SPACE, CAR SUDDENLY ACCELERATED AND CRASHED INTO CONCRETE BUILDING. AS IT WAS ACCELERATING, THAT SPLIT SECOND, I CHECKED MY FOOT TO MAKE SURE IT WAS ON THE BRAKE, AND NOT GAS. I PRESSED HARD ON IT, TO NO AVAIL. IT DID NOT RESPOND. IT WAS TOTALED BY INSURANCE COMPANY. I HAD MINOR INJURIES: BRUISED LEFT CHEST AND SHOULDER. FOLLOWING DAY, A MILD STIFF NECK. ALL OF PHYSICAL AILMENTS GONE, EXCEPT MILD SORE NECK, IN 3 DAYS. NOTE; I PUT SPEED AT APPROXIMATE SPEED IN PARKING LOT BEFORE ACCELERATION OCCURRED. *TR
