been just full force ahead and thankfully there was no one behind us as they would have totally been in our back seat. Both would have been even worse of an accident then they already were! There was smoke from the brakes (obviously going from 75-0 caused some brake wear and tear) EMT looked at the seat belts as the passengers retracted after she slid forward causing injury to the abdomen.
