WHILE DRIVING MY VEHICLE THE CRUISE CONTROL WENT INTO RESUME AND FAILED TO LET ME SLOW DOWN OR STOP VEHICLE. I APPLIED THE BRAKES SEVERAL TIMES, AND I ALSO APPLIED THE GAS, WHILE HOLDING BOTH FEET OVER THE BRAKES, VEHICLE STILL WOULDN'T DISENGAGE. I DROVE THE VEHICLE IN THAT POSITION FOR ABOUT ONE MILE, TRYING TO GET IT TO STOP. WHEN I APPROACHED MY TURNING INTERSECTION AND APPLIED THE BRAKES, THE RIGHT TIRE LIFTED OVER THE CURB, AND TOOK MY VEHICLE INTO THE PATH OF THE SOUTHBOUND ONGOING TRAFFIC. I THEN TURNED MY WHEEL TO THE RIGHT TO AVOID RUNNING INTO THE TRAFFIC, AND THE VECHICLE WENT OVER THE GRASSIE MEDIUM. I THEN APPLIED MY BRAKES AGAIN, BUT THE VEHICLE STILL WOULDN'T DISENGAGE. AT THAT TIME I REALIZED THAT THE VEHICLE WASN'T GOING TO STOP. I THEN RELEASED MY SEAT BELT, PUSHED THE DOOR OPEN, AND THEN PUSHED MYSELF OUTWARD OF THE VEHICLE. I FELL ONTO THE GROUND, AND THE VEHICLE CONTINUED TO TRAVEL NORTHBOUND AND ACROSS A FOUR-LINE HIGHWAY, AND HIT A COMERICA BANK POLE. TWO POLICEOFFICERS WERE SENT TO THE SCENE, AND I WAS GIVEN A TICKET. THE TICKET WAS FOR FAILING TO MAINTAIN CONTROL OF MY VEHICLE. I TRIED NUMBEROUS TIMES TO STOP MY VEHICLE, BUT IT WOULDN'T DISENGAGE. PLEASE CONTACT ME!
