I was driving a chevy Trailblazer rented from hertz on December 29, 2004. On highway 285 near mile marker 189. 5, I encountered black ice on a curve. The vehicle started a 4-wheel drift into the oncoming lane. I attempted to avoid colliding with another vehicle that had spun out. The abs did not work. There was no stability control. I struck an embankment and the vehicle flipped over. Although there was both frontal and side impact, no airbags deployed. It is my belief that the chevy Trailblazer is inherently unsafe. There is no way this vehicle should have rolled over at the speed at which I was driving.
