My son was driving his 1995 isuzu rodeo on a wet road. He was not speeding and was not driving beyond the road condition. He applied the brakes as he was approaching a stop sign and the brakes subsequently locked up. The car started skidding and the vehicle slid into the northbound lane of hwy 603. He was struck on the drivers door by a northbound vehicle and was sent into a spin, partially airborne and thrown into the southbound lane. As a result, a southbound vehicle struck him. The resulting three-car accident resulted in the death of the southbound driver and premature delivery of her 8-month-old son and injuries to the northbound vehicles driver. My son was not injured in the accident.
