Narrative

Yesterday around 10am I was going to pick up a friend from a car shop, I used my lucid navigation to follow the address, when I got there I went to to business next door because the address took me there. When I noticed I was at the wrong business, in my mind the goal was to park somewhere and make a u turn. Out of nowhere the car started to accelerate without control, i tried press to break petal nothing work, I let go of the petal nothing work and I decided to put the car on park it was accelerate left and right from want to street to another. It hit bushes and the car still didn't stopped. After I gave up knowing the car would have just takes my life. And suddenly it got back on the road and cross the road and hit the wall and stopped. It was like something you watched in movies. Thank God, it wasn't rushed hour, no one got hurt. And I got out with minors injuries. I have a video as well but unfortunately I can't post here.
