in my 2 accidents i was going 40 to 45mph when the car ran infront of me. whole front of the vehicle smashed. my body even broke the tilt wheel on one accident. no airbag deployed.

maybe there is some physics due to the other vehicles forward movement or something?

i didn't complain that an explosive device didn't detonate in my face i was unhurt and happy.
