WAS LEAVING FREEWAY AND WENT TO HIT THE BRAKES AND HAD NO TRACTION. HAD SMELLED A LIQUID, WHICH IN RETROSPECT SEEMS TO HAVE BEEN COOLANT. MISSED HITTING OTHER VEHICLES, BUT THE CAR WAS IN A SINGLE CAR ACCIDENT - VEHICLE DAMAGE WAS EXCESSIVE AND THE CAR IS NOT REPAIRABLE. I WAS SERIOUSLY INJURED WITH MULTIPLE BROKEN BONES, FACIAL LACERATIONS, BRUISES, ETC. ORIGINALLY THOUGHT THAT THE BRAKES HAD FAILED, BUT LOSS OF TRACTION WOULD DUPLICATE THE EVENT - BASICALLY SMELLED COOLANT.
