Description of the problem	We purchased a subaru outback on 2/3/07 and the accident was on 2/7/07, at 10:05 am. I was in cruise control at 60 mph and i was in the passing lane, all of a sudden i started to go to the left, against the guard rail, i thought i was on black ice, but the road was dry, but because i thought it was ice, i did not touch the brake, and therefore i was still going 60 mph in cruise control. I turned the wheel to the right and back to the left and then to the right again, still on cruise control, i hit the guard rail on my right... Head on... Then the car backed around and stopped with the rear bumper on the same guard rail that i had hit head on. *jb
