The other driver was injured and transported by ambulance to the hospital. The contact was not injured. A police report was filed. The vehicle was towed and impounded.
Going from 40 to 5MPH breaks feel like is locking for couple of second and back to normal,any speed before stops truck has a little hesitation before breaking.
