"Crush zone sensors are located at the front of the vehicle. They activate the air bag when they are struck by the crushed structure of the vehicle."
Activate by the crushed structure of the vehicle.. so basiclly when your bumper hits your rad it goes off. Not on an interestion crash, Its more likly to go off on a head on.

"Sensors should respond to a fixed barrier impact speed of approximately 18 km/h or higher. There is a 'may deploy' speed range from 13 km/h to 18 km/h. This reflects the variability in, for example, crash sensor and vehicle structural performance. Below an impact speed of 13 km/h, no airbag deployment is desired."

hey glad ur bros allright and all but i do have one question......why is that river called what it is? Little Sackville River...thats not right.

Ah, hit by a 1.6EL... I was always fond of those... Canada-only, they did, however, manage to screw up the 1.7EL

Glad to hear everybody'* okay... Damage estimates yet?

Well on the bonnie the sensor for airbags is right behind the grill pretty much. And it'* not far back at all.

That'* because it is the "Little Sackville River"..... the "Sackville River" is on the other side of town.... the one near the accident is the smaller one.

well i gahted that i was just wonderin what was up with Sackville, kind of a wierd name for a town.

Climax springs? thats just so much better...

dangit i knew that was comin, i didnt cover all my bases when i made that comment....i shall learn from this...but hey our ancestors gave towns wierd names.no one knows why.and theres nothin we can do about it.

Climax Springs don't sound like a bad place to be. That'* what I think I'll call my new bed.

There'* got to be someone there with the last name of Baggins.
Sackville-Baggins, too good!
