My mother was driving on the on-ramp of I-57 in Illinois. Her 2008 Yaris, hit a patch of ice and her car crashed into the guard rail. She was take by ambulance to the nearest hospital, where she was admitted for 2 days and released to me. During the accident, the air bags did not deploy and the seat belt disengaged causing deep visible purple bursts to her chest through her insulated down jacket. The imprint of the square seat belt buckle is still visible on her chest. She is a senior citizen, and is still in very serious pain. No one else should have to suffer the pain and suffering that my mother is going through now. The car is now in the body shop incurring many thousands of dollars worth of damage.
Vehicle in front of me stopped. I applied brakes and the car did not stop as usual, it just slid. I attempted to avoid the vehicle and rolled over. The airbags did not deploy and I was slammed into the steering wheel and against the door. Causing chest pain and shoulder pain.
