The Traffic Accident Reconstruction Origin -ARnews-


Re: Side air bags - activation after accident

A friend of mine that runs a body shop told me that 20/20 the T.V show had aired a program about side airbags going off when someone was trying to use a unlock tool. I operate a wrecker part time and I am called to do lots of unlocks. If there is any information that would be helpful for me to know about this matter or if you know how I could get a copy of the 20/20 T.V. show I would really appreciate it. Even if no one got hurt, if the side airbag went off it would do alot of damage and the liability would be expensive. I have noticed that when the passenger side front airbag on a probe goes off it actually lifts the windshield up and bends the metal in the dash. I've got to examples of this in my shop right know. They are both 94 probes.

Thank you
Steve Taylor
