| My wife was driving east down hwy-40 toward salina, ks. she had the cruise control set on 60 mph. she began to have a epileptic seizure (she was cleared by her doctor to drive prior to this incident) at that point the car began to slowly drift of to the right side of the road. the car drove over a culver, the rear driver side of the car struck at concrete form and sent the car rolling of into a field the car rolled four times. after the fourth roll the car rolled back on to its wheels and continued to drive due to the cruise control still being engaged and drove 100ft before coming to rest once it struck a concrete fence post. at no time did any of the air bags deploy nor did the cruise control disengage. the vehicle has a crash response system threw on-star, at no time did the crash response activate. this information was provided to me via the saline county sheriffs. my wife only suffered minor cuts and bruises. *tr | |||
