| Was traveling on constantine drive on my way to beach blvd in huntington beach. i was going approximately 15 mph, i had glanced down to look at my navigation system i noticed that i was close to a parked car and put on my brakes. i ended up striking the left tail light of a parked 2010 - blue - ford element. the point of impact was my right front taillight. my car flipped over in one fell swoop and landed upside down. eyewitnesses to the crash believe that a gust of wind caused the car to flip over. the police who arrived on the scene shortly thereafter could not find a justification for what had occurred at the low rate of speed that i was traveling. even though the car flipped upside down the air bags did not deploy. *tr | |||
