Please read the details of the problem and tell me if the airbags worked in this car accident?

A teen, let鈥檚 call it Peter, in a hot afternoon of June he was in the street driving fast, without seat belt because he trusted in his airbags. Suddenly, a vagabond crossed in his way and he used the breaks, the car turnned 30 degrees. Peter was stunned, with the nose, two ribs broken and cuts in the eyebrows.


Peter and his lawyers say that he suffered great damage because the airbags didn鈥檛 inflated; the legal representatives of the brand of the car say that it was blame of Peter because he used sunglasses, a can of soda and a folder with metal rings between him and the steering wheel. What do you say? Do the airbags served? Do they were inflated?


Does it have something to do anything chemical? Think that there must be formed .0650 m3 of gaseous nitrogen due to airbag works.Please read the details of the problem and tell me if the airbags worked in this car accident?
Guess I'm just tired.


This makes absolutely


no sense to me at all.Please read the details of the problem and tell me if the airbags worked in this car accident?
That depends on the impact zone of the car. A side impact will not set off front impact air bags.


Also-regardless if the air bags worked or not people should wear seat belts. The owners manual of the car will tell you that. Just because a car has air bags does not mean you dont need seat belts. I am willing to bet somewhere in the car-probably above the visor it probably says WEAR YOUR SEATBELT.
seat belt use is required with airbags - it controls the force of your body rather than you deflecting off of it to the side. Without the seat belt on there would be no claim against any auto manufacturer for an airbag injury or non-airbag injury. Even with it on there would be no solid claim, the response would be that it reduced the injuries you would have had if there was no airbag.





Now since these did not go off it sounds as if the impact was away from the impact safety zones where the sensors are placed.
You are actually asking two diverse questions. I did the air bags function as designed? easily and quantitatively answerable by the courts independent mechanic. and II did the airbags function as desired. which is an emotional question and not a quantitative question. also Peter may be seen as a moron for expecting a machine to exercise superior judgment and to protect a wreckless speeder with too much junk between himself and the controls.
