    As i prepared to slow to a stop in a relatives circular driveway, the engine began to rev up with a high pitched whine. I turned the wheel to avoid hitting a parked car in hopes of stopping the car but it continued to gain speed and ended up hitting a pickup in the same circular driveway. The brakes did not seem to function as the car picked up speed.
