I was driving in a fast food drive through. It was a stop and go pace because there were around 5 cars before me and was traveling approx 3 mph. I began to proceed but this time as I went to apply my brakes they went to the floor and I couldn't stop the car. In order to avoid the car in front of me I turned my wheel to the right and jumped the curb and hit a wall. The vehicle was 3 days old.
