This is a correction and addition to ODI 10098071. I made a left turn at about 10 mph. After the turn the vehicle skidded, hit curb and flipped. A police officer witnessed the incident and said that it appeared that the anti-lock brakes did not react. The car is also equipped with enhanced accident response system which obviously did not react.
