My daughter was on a rural highway, hwy 83 near alma, nebraska. Three head of cattle was standing in the middle of the roadway and she was unable to avoid impact. She was traveling at a normal rate of speed, using a lap and shoulder belt and slammed on the brakes striking one of the cattle, causing it to shear the top of the hood, shatter the windshield, and shear the roof of the car. The driver airbag did not deploy and she had neck injuries and was transported by ambulance to a local hospital. When law enforcement approached the accident, they were convinced they were working a fatality due to the condition of the vehicle. We were told that her neck injuries might have not been as severe if the airbag had deployed. It was a rental vehicle from enterprise car rental due to the fact that her company car was being repaired from a hailstorm two-three months before. The vehicle was a 2002 ford taurus--[xxx]. *ak information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).
