yeah but nobody heard about the kid who got killed by an airbag? The airbag was so strong that it chopped his head off... no bullshit im serious. it knocked his head off
that actually did happen, but it was stupid because people dont know how to read the precautions inside the drivers manual. it clearly states to sit as far back as possible but still within reach of the wheel and pedals so that if it does deploy it will cushion you instead of pushing you. the lady was at fault for killing the kid cause the baby was in the front seat right up against the dash in its carseat. the baby was only a couple months old too. people are so dumb cause they risk lives just for their convenience of having the baby next to them instead of in back of them. selfish if you ask me.
the new cars coming out are supposed to have an option of disabling the airbag since its not required by law. if airbags were required any car produced before 1991 would have to be pulled off the streets.
