While driving uphill in the snow, the automatic stability control on my toyota engaged with a beeping sound and a dashboard indicator light. once this happened, several other lights illuminated on the dashboard and the vehicle began to accelerate up the hill. i attempted to brake, but the vehicle continued to gain speed and struck the back of a parked pickup truck on the side of the road. no airbag deployment occurred. the front end damage was significant, making the vehicle a total loss. *tr | |||
