Description of the problem | Driving very slowly uphill in a hospital parking deck, the principal driver of the car turned into an available parking slot applying some gas, from 25-30 feet away, only to have the vehicle accelerate uncontrollably, even with the driver's right foot fully engaged with the brake pedal. The van jumped over parking blocks at the end of the space and struck a concrete post, whereupon the engine compartment crumpled and the airbags engaged. The van bounced back approximately twenty feet. Witnesses attracted by the sound of squealing tires, revving engine noise (before impact) and the subsequent crash itself came to render assistance and call police. The driver's right's foot was severely bruised by the crash impact and her sternum fractured. The vehicle was a declared total loss. |
