Description of the problem | While driving, my car started to make a beeping sound i had not heard before. I looked at the dashboard and the multi-media system and i did not see any warning indicators/lights. When i stopped at a red light i put the car in park, turned the car off and turned the car back on (push to start). I proceeded to drive again and the car began to beep that unfamiliar sound again. Still no visible warning indicators/lights. I pulled over, put the parking break on, put the car in park, turned the car off and then turned the car back on. I began to drive again and the car was no longer beeping. While driving i stepped on the break pedal with the intent to slow down because of slowing traffic, my car did not slow down. I slammed on the break, the car still did not slow down and i hit the car in front of me. After i hit the car in front of me my car was still pushing, i stepped on the break again and the car felt as if it was still trying to push forward, i pulled the emergency break and the car stopped. A police officer was already on the scene, then notified us park police to come and take a report. |
