Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I was driving down the road, came to a complete stop to allow a vehicle with a blow out to get off the road. i started to accelerate, looked at the car with the blow out and apparently a truck in front of me felt the same way because when i looked up he had come to a stop and i couldn't stop before hitting him. i was going 15 mph. my air bags didn't deploy. i didn't even scratch the other vehicle but within seconds a fire started coming out where the windshield wipers were, in a matter of minutes my car was enguled. the front of my car had little damage but the fire engulfed the rest. *ak
