2005 Buick Lesabre's brakes failed. The brake pedal was dangling useless.
Traffic light changed, brake was applied, went to floorboard, nothing happened. Brakes were pumped, nothing happened. Vehicle strikes another vehicle, airbag deploys, automobile continues in a ditch, pops out of the ditch, goes through an empty parking lot, pops onto another street and eventually stops after going over another curb into another parking lot about 1/2 mile from accident. Theory is that abs malfunctioned which caused regular brakes to fail.
