No air bag deployed

I still see a lot of people letting their passenger (a lot of time children) in the front seat ride with their feet up on the dash, that has to be the dumbest most dangerous thing anyone can do.

Some cars but not most allow you to disable the passenger side airbag.

It's actually a requirement to be able to disable passenger side airbag in trucks. Most modern vehicles use weight sensors in the seat to arm/disarm the airbag. If there isn't enough weight in the seat the airbag won't go off.

100% true. I have pretty gruesome pics of head of femur bone in plain sight from someone that riding this way.

 

[Legal Brief]

My son was leaving thru the parking lot at church. Then, a Honda Odyssey backed rather quickly into the main thoroughfare driveway of the church parking lot. My son had about 2 seconds between the time the guy started backing and the time of the impact. The minivan's side airbags went off, but they did NOT in my RAM. It busted the radiator on the RAM and pushed the bumper into the tire. Again, seems like a big enough frontal impact to set off the airbags??

No way that picture is a low speed impact, truck is repairable and most cosmetic. Be glad the bag didn’t fire it would have broken your kids face.
