Do these things work? I've seen multiple accidents online with no deployment. My girl is a paramedic, has seen 2 Yaris wrecks that warranted deployment in her opinion, but no airbag... I've never see a pic of a popped airbag on a Yaris...what's going on?

Someone go run their car into a wall like the old Aerosmith video...

Well, I street race every day, so I'm sure I'll be able to tell you soon.

Enjoy Mr. Attitude. My airbag went off. My gf was driving (I wasn't in the car) and someone turned in front of her coming the other way, she was going 30mph and was in the intersection when the other driver (a nissan altima) took a left turn in front of her.

The manual would tell us the conditions in which the airbag would deploy.
