    Did you hit it head on? Side airbags?

    You have to hit the sensor just right to deploy them, some wrecks are small but the sensor is hit and they deploy other times it's a bad wreck and they don't.

    Troof, when I wrecked the SRT, I t-boned a girl at 50mph and air bags didnt deploy. But the steering wheel fucked me up.

    best way to describe is going str8 on 85 at 70-75 mph and swirved to the left and hit the barrier as u can see by the front bumper. i would have thought driver airbag would have gone off. however knowing that i am okay i am glad that it didnt cause that powder/buring would have made my pink eye worse hahahaahah

    Yeah sometimes no airbag is good, sometimes you NEED the airbag, I've known of people getting hurt in a small wreck only because of the airbag lol.

    Mine didn't deploy either. It was raining and a guy in a ranger slammed on his brakes and slid off the road into a disabled vehicle. He knocked it into my path. I hit it at about 50 head-on, drivers half.

    How do you know you were going to die? Just because you avoided an accident dosent mean you avoided death.

    Again either way your going to paying out of your pocket to cover something that could have been easily avoided or repaired without having your self to pay for it. Expecially since you swerved 3 lanes to avoid "death" < Do you really think swerving into a wall and traveling across three more lanes and not hitting anyone(That could caused a more severe accident or possibly death) was on driver skill or luck

    So yeah... K thnx bai.

    First off glad you're ok.

    However, I'd have to agree and say I would've rather let the other person hit me and have them pay for it. Especially since they were obviously at fault.

    That's neither here nor there. It's all said and done.

    UM! either way the guy drove off and never stopped.. so if he hit me who is to say he would have stopped. if i caused an accident wether i hit em or not I WOULD STOP! police officer wrote report and found the car that didnt stop at fault. and yes I AM GLAD THAT I AM OK and that AIDAN wasnt in the car.

    damn. i cant believe ppl are speculating what someone else should have done.. usuallly the first ones to tell you do something are the ones that fuck up first. that is online though, you dont have to look a person in the eye before you tell them some of the stupidest shit to ever come from your brain.

    Might worry about your wing falling off and hurting someone though. Be careful with that thing.
