Not surprised the airbag didn't deploy, look at the front of the car, it's a bit lower, but not crumpled and crushed (Towards the windscreen I mean), most cars have sensors attached to frame rails that once the rail deform to a certain point, in conjunction with G force detection and so forth, it will deploy the air bag.

I would think Hyundai would spend less on an emergency jack.  :-\

Ouch.


My very first call I went on as a volunteer fireman was a similar accident.

However after the camaro went under the car, it flipped and skidded on its lid 500 feet.


probably should have left the t-tops on that night.............her headed skidded most of the way, leaving a nice red streak on the highway  [puke]

The driver was lucky to be able to raise one of the doors at all - a little further to the driver side and they would bother be stuck shut.

Translation: I have severe Lambo envy and just because of that, I am going to make a belligerent slam on the car in hopes of a laugh or two.

The guy that got rear ended in the Bronco was fine.


However, the camarro driver.......not so fortunate.


She was dead when we got there.

Had to make a trip back to the station to get some sand bags to absorb all the blood. It was pretty nasty.

Probably, but if I had one I certainly wouldn't mod it like that. It looks tacky.
