After a few minutes, I went to my doctors appointment , but had to leave before I saw the doctor, as I didn't feel well. Despite a lot of front end damage, the car was drivable, so I decided to drive the car to my home , but I was frightened all the way as I thought the car might do the same thing again in traffic. When I got home I called allstate and reported the accident. I told them there is a problem with the car, as it accelerated by itself, and the driver side airbag did not inflate. . Per instructions from allstate, the car has been towed to ed morse Cadillac for repair of the damage incurred.
