I WAS DRIVING DURING RUSH HOUR AT 70MPH WHEN MY AXLE SHAFT ABRUPTLY DISCONNECTED FROM THE CAR. IT WAS SHAKING VIOLENTLY, AND I WAS UNABLE TO ACCELERATE. I WAS ONLY ABLE TO COAST THROUGH THREE LANES OF TRAFFIC TO GET THE CAR OFF THE ROAD. I ALMOST DIED WHEN THE PERSON BEHIND ME ALMOST DROVE THROUGH ME WHEN THE SHAFT DISCONNECTED AND THE CAR SUDDENLY SLOWED WITHOUT THE BRAKE LIGHTS GOING OFF.
