Asia built Car Airbag Not Deploying!?!

[OTEP]

But even with the widespread availability of Supplemental Restraint Systems, we must not be too dependent on them for protection in case of a crash.

Siguro bonus na lang kung mag-deploy.

wow...pink airbag! :D

[number001]

ano kaya ang feeling ng nasalpok ng airbag? diba around 200kph ang force nito?

I read somewhere that it would deploy and deflate so quickly that you wouldn't even notice it until everything has come to a complete stand still.

pero syempre you would still be hit by the airbag. what kind of damage would it cause the occupants of the car, especially if you're wearing eyeglasses.

There's a good solution to that, don't wear eyeglasses. :lol:

I've heard some people relate that it can cause minor burns to your face... sort of like getting slapped by a wet towel, but all over your face, and all at once.

It's a danger to small occupants (4 1/2 feet) and kids because it's so forceful. That's why you always keep your kids in the back seat, unless your car has an automatic disable feature, that turns off the airbag if the front seat occupant is very small/light.

Typical airbag injuries (normal conditions - naka seatbelt, average height and tamang angle ng seat)

- Bruised cheekbones
- Broken nose
- Swollen lip hehe.

Basically kung sinapak ka ni Tyson with a 8" glove.

dapat pala nakahelmet yung mga front seat occupants ng mga airbag equipped vehicles para maiwasan yung airbag induced injuries

Oo nga pink airbag ang cute ah..
Tapos yung sa passenger white..

Naku naka eye glasses ako eh..

(This is essentially a non-issue for me since I avoid acquiring vehicles with airbags)

I'd prefer to have a car with airbags, why just stop at seatbelts alone, they work best together.
