TLX

  • 800 miles
I was entering a left-hand turn lane, with a red light. The third-party investigation showed I entered the lane at 35mp. I started gentle breaking and when there was no response, I pushed the brake hard and to the floor. I did not feel the car decelerate but the investigation shows that braked for 7 seconds plus and hit the last car in line at about 20mph. The investigator was unable to recreate the circumstances.

TLX

I was driving on a residential street approx. 10 mph and turned into a driveway. There was another vehicle parked ahead. I stopped hard on my brakes but my car didn't stop and hit the parked car. As it happened so quickly, I must have turned the steering wheel, continued to press on the brakes but ended up also hitting a building.
