Carrier/rack Problems of Chevrolet Uplander

While driving north on dagsboro road I crossed the railroad tracks and the rear axle on the passenger side broke catapulting the vehicle into a telephone pole on the left side of the road and causing the vehicle to turn over two times. I don't know if it was turning end over end or sidewise. The telephone pole broke off at the bottom and also at the top leaving the top hanging on the wires. I didn¿t realize that the left rear tire had come off until the car was being moved to the salvage yard. The state of delaware uniform collision report indicates that the cause of the accident was inattentive driving. I told cpl albert at the time of the accident that I didn¿t know what happened but I did remember being sleepy and mentioning that I was planning to stop at the smyrna rest area to take a nap. The rest area was at least an hours drive ahead of us so I didn¿t think I was in any immediate danger of falling asleep. I have communicated with cpl albert several times since the accident in an effort to have the reason for the accident changed from inattentive driving to mechanical failure. When I showed the picture of the broken axel to my mechanic he suggested that the car was catapulted on to the telephone pole. I am scheduled to go to the ¿justice of the peace court of the state of deleware in and for sussex county court no. 3 ,23730 shortly rd. Georgetown DE 19947 (302)856-145 ¿ at 9:00 am on Tuesday December 22, 2015 to plead my case. I think it is important to report the problem even if I should lose the case.
