When vehicle was involved in a rear end collision the driver's side seat collapsed, and the driver was ejected through the rear window. The driver was seat belted. Crash resulted in driver's death. Reported by insurance agent. Vehicle registered to a.e. Gay.
I was heading north on the highway and I changed lanes from the left to the right lane. Once I changed lanes my car jerked viciously back to the left I corrected the problem and went back to the right, but the car ran off the road and lost the rear passenger wheel and tire. The tire was still intact with the hub and axle (lug nuts were still connected all of them were tight.) this shouldn't have happened. I believe I wrecked because my rear axle broke.
