problem #1

Mustang

Pre-accident conditions: Daylight, raining, car stopped at red light. A few minutes prior to arriving at the red light the driver's power seat moved all the way forward completly on its own Accord after stopping at the red light I re-adjusted the driver's seat and when the light turned green I proceeded making a right turn in my normal "old lady" fashion. About 3/4 through the 90 degree turn the rear wheels lost traction and began to slide to the left. I immediately hit the brake and turned the wheel to the left. (I suppose it is possible that I accidently hit the cruise control button located on the wheel at this time). Anyway the car engine contiued to rev and the rear wheels continued to spin, driving me into a complete 360 degree turn, all the time with my food hard on the brake pedal. While in this spin the rear of the car jumped a median curb twice, crossed two lanes of asphalt, jumped another curb and finally crash into a concrete light pole. Only then did the car stall and the drive wheels stop spinning.
