Stopped behind a truck and as the driver started to go around it, the vehicle first swerved towards the right and as the driver tried to stabilize it, it swung to the left hitting another car and then swerved to the right and of the road, hitting a tree. Basically the driver lost control of the vehicle.

I was driving on the highway going about 65 mph on a sunny day (I. E. , the raod was dry) when the car, on its own, started veering into the right hand lane. I attempted to straighten the car by very gently the steering wheel to the left, but it was as if I had no control over the steering wheel at all. The car skidded across 4 lanes of traffic and into a series of 360-degree turns. Eventually, the car stopped turning, facing south in a northbound lane. It continued to skid backwards, and only came to a stop when it hit a lightpole on the shoulder of the road. Although the the rear of the car was totally destroyed and the car was assessed as needing major, major repairs, my insurance company refused to "total" the car is it was only about 6 months old and had been driven less than 5000 miles. With no options available to me, I had the car replaced, but sold it the day it left the repair shop as I consider this car to be a deathtrap and refused to set foot in it following the accident.
