accident. This meant I was stuck in the middle of a busy highway unable to move to the shoulder with no protection besides the shell of the vehicle. After the fire department arrived 15 minutes later, they had to spend considerable time reading through the manual to figure out how to manually disable my brakes and took 4 firefighters (1 steering and 3 pushing) to push my car to the shoulder. Meanwhile, the at fault driver (car 3) was able to drive away from the scene of the accident after completing police activities. The collision protocol of automatically tightening seat belts, putting on hazard lights, dialing road-side service, rolling down windows partially, and braking itself was great. However, disabling the car and leaving the seat belts unusable afterwards left me in a dangerous situation that could have been even a worse second accident. A flatbed tow truck was called in by audi roadside service and of course they recommended an audi certified collision center.
