“Driving on santa fe blvd in denver co. Was coming to a red light, pressed the brakes and they went to the floor, swerved into next lane with cars further away, and avoided a crash as the light changed.. This is a very heavy traffic area and I am lucky to not have caused a accident involving several cars.. Lawsuit appropriate !”
