Whoa whoa whoa!! Watch that video closely. Right at 1:23, it shows the top view of the cars just about to collide. If you look at the passenger side, while the cars are still about 1-2ft apart, the passenger airbags start deploying. BEFORE IMPACT!! What's up with that?? How in the world do they deploy before the cars even make contact?

I've known cops in L.A. that take bets on whether a driver is Asian or inebriated. Tough call sometimes

Check out what type of frame that old car used in that video. They got one using a weird X brace type setup that is at a HUGE disadvantage in an offset crash like that. Try it again with conventional framed older car...
