WHILE PULLING INTO THE ENTRANCE LANE OF A TOLL BOOTH AT 25 MPH, UNIT 1 APPLIED THE BRAKES, HOWEVER, THE BRAKES FAILED. UNIT 1 THEN TURNED THE VEHICLE TO THE LEFT TO AVOID HITTING UNIT 2 WHICH WAS STOPPED AT THE TOLL BOOTH. UNIT 1 WENT ONTO THE CURB AND CONCRETE BARRIER. IT THEN HIT UNIT 2 IN THE LEFT REAR AND THEN HIT THE TOLL BOOTH, WHERE IT CAME TO FINAL REST. THE OFFICER AT THE SCENE FOUND THAT THE BRAKE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR WITH NO RESISTANCE.
