buti na lang di ka nasaktan (physically). thanks for warning us. pareho tayo ng auto, i always wear seatbelt. di pala gagana airbag pag may collision on that speed.

malamang nga bagong MO ng mga carnappers. you'll have nowhere to go kasi youre boxed in between two cars. magugulat ka na lang if the car in front of you suddenly slams on the brakes eh anluwag ng kalye in front! un nga lang sumalpok na ko sa auto nya kaya nawalan na ng interes sa auto ko. wasak na kasi. And he didnt care if wasak din rear end niya.
Kabisado ko na ang part na to ng c5 mga sirs. i pass here everyday going home. nagkalat na din ngayon ang mg barriers ng MMDA. I passed by that road again this morning iba na naman ang position ng mga barriers.

tnx bro. its better to pass by edsa na lang if alanganing oras na.
ingat na lang tayong lahat.
tnx bro. slight bruises and bugbog lang sa head and muscles dahil sa pagkauntog. nice corolla. same color. good thing you do that. that time kasi i wasnt wearing mine. i was confused nga why the airbags didnt deploy as they were intended to.

Hindi at higher speed ang deployment, since you were moving and when the Civic braked, hindi siya complete stop so he was still moving and you slowed down but not enough. Basically it's just like you hit a car while you were going a bit faster so there's only around 30kph difference between the two of you I would guess. Airbags usually deploy around 60kph.
In the crash tests we often see the deceleration is from around 60kph to zero, so the G-force acting on this is much higher than the one you had, which was probably, say, 80kph to 60kph, or even 50kph, so that's just a 30kph difference. The airbag sensors need to have a large enough gap between the velocity at the moment of impact and the final velocity at a certain time frame (usually just milliseconds). If the difference (or in that case, deceleration) is large enough then only then will the bags deploy.
Just do the math regarding the deceleration and you'll see that your deceleration was not as hard so the airbags won't deploy, even if you're well within the range of speed (usually 25kph and above I think) at which they should.Last edited by mbeige; March 31st, 2008 at 04:36 PM.

+1 on the thrown stones along C5.
Ingat na lang po kayo sa bandang Kalayaan Ave. intersection at may ginagawa kasi dyan. Even at slower speeds (60-70 km/h) in daytime traffic, the three remaining lanes in that area can give you claustrophobia.
It's not ideal of course, but methinks we'll have to live with the bottleneck for a few more months...
Good think you're okay boss.

Nako, buti hindi ka napahamak.
Plano pa naman naming dumaan ng madaling araw sa C5 next week papuntang batangas. Mukhang EDSA nalang daan namin.
Daming issue ng SU7:grin:
