March 1998 Injury

Traveling approximately 35 MPH down a dual lane (each way) heavily traveled road when I attempted to stop the car & the brake pedal went to the floor. After I was able to stop, I discovered brake fluid was dripping from the underside of the automobile where the brake line had apparently ruptured. Front brake line connectors & rear line was replaced at a cost of $900 by a professional mechanic at a local garage.
