Narrative

After coming to a stop at a STOP sign, the vehicle accelerated unintentionally, crossing the highway and hitting a parked car, causing injuries and totaling my vehicle. While my vehicle sustained a crumbled chassis, no airbags were deployed, causing injuries to the driver and passenger. Additionally, the emergency automatic brakes did not stop the car from ploughing into the parked car. The car was examined by the insurance carrier (AAA) and Toyota (the manufacturer), who sent out a technician to read the CDR data. The report was generated by BOSCH (a 3rd party hired by Toyota). The report generated by BOSCH claimed the accelerator was fully engaged at 100% and brakes were applied only 0.85s prior to the impact. This was the first such event; no prior warning lights/signals were reported on the dash. This was a new car purchased from the dealership with no prior accidents or incidents.
