| Description of the problem | My wife was driving a toyota corolla normally when she suddenly found that she could not reduce speed and to control the car. The car went far off the road and hit a post. There were no other vehicles around or involved; it was day time; there were no external factors that affected the road condition, such as snow or rain. My wife was (and is) in good health, she was not under the influence of alcohol or drugs (nor does she drink alcohol or use drugs); she has a flawless driving record, and she has never received tickets or gotten into any other accidents since she has gotten her drivers license about 15 years ago. |
