“Our daughter was driving our 2013 Toyota Yaris on the highway approximately 60-65mph, hit a patch of ice and spun out. It is unclear exactly what happened after that as she has no memory of what occurred from the time the car began to spin and was headed straight toward a guard rail and then her being in the car on the side of the road. It is unclear how long she was there before she regained consciousness. The car has significant damage to the right front, left front, left side and left rear. …”

The airbags did not deploy despite the fact that the vehicle was damaged so badly that it was totaled by the insurance company. There was significant damage to the left front, left side, and left rear of the vehicle and to the right front of the vehicle. …”
