“On may 5, 2018, I was involved in an accident where I was lost control of my vehicle while driving the street within speed limits as I was attempting to enter 2nd gear. The gas pedal felt strange when I depressed it, since it went to the right. Just then the vehicle spun to the left and hit a parked vehicle, repeatedly. The vehicle kept accelerating, after every impact as it went forward towards the parked car. …”
