Ascent

  • 34,000 miles
Wife was driving home from work approximately 09:10 pm(25901 riverwoods rd, mettawa, il 60045) no one was seriously injured in automobile fire I-94 1 mile South of route 176(exit 16(/rockland road). After no more than a minute on the interstate, I noticed some smoke and pulled immediately off to side of road as soon as possible (around 1.5-2.0 miles from work) and around 5 min into drive from departure from address listed above. Was fortunate that officer M zawierowski was driving by and able to assist and called fire department. When officer stated went back to car noticed that car locked up all doors and stated how fortunate you (wife) were able to escape. The only warning was smell and smoke, minute later car was burning and within short time heat and smoke was severe that state police called fire department
