“I was entering the outerbelt at cleveland avenue & I-270w, and as I started to accelerate the car got up to about 45 miles per hour on the entrance ramp and the speedometer started to slow. I had my two children, whitney age 8 and brittany age 15 in the car with me. This could have been a terrible accident, but I realized that something was wrong. …”
