## Narrative
IT WAS A LIGHT SNOW FALLING BUT THE TEMPERATURE WAS ABOVE FREEZING AND THE STREETS WERE WET. A CONSILIDATED FREIGHTWAYS TRUCK CUT IN FRONT OF ME SO I HAD TO APPLY THE BRAKES. THE ABS SYSTEM DID NOT PUMP THE BRAKES LIKE IT WAS SUPPOSE TO. THE VAN SKIDDED INTO A DIVIDING WALL DUE TO ABS FAILURE. THE VAN WAS TOTALED. I HAD SEAT BELT AND AIR BAG TRAMA. MY WIFE BROKE HER RIGHT KNEE CAP AND CRACKED HER BREST BONE. I SAW THE RECALL LAST NIGHT ON TV. I SAW THAT MY OLD VAN IS BEING RECALLEDBECAUSE OF ABS PROBLEMS. PLEASE ADD THIS ACCIDENT TO YOUR LIST. THANKS> *AK
