 Description of the problemThe 2005 dodge ram air bags did not deploy in a crash into a 6 foot brick column and subsequent impact with a travel trailer 4 feet beyond the fence. The point of impact was the center of the front bumper and occurred with sufficient force to push the hood through the windshield. The driver was wearing the seatbelt, but suffered a cracked sternum and concussion by impact with the steering wheel. From the police traffic crash report: a 2012 kia failed to stop at a stop sign at the intersection of courtside drive and town center loop e in wilsonville, or. The vehicle proceeded through the stop sign at courtside drive and onto town center loop where it came into the path of a north bound 2005 dodge ram. The two vehicles collided with each other in the middle of the northbound lane of town center loop east. The dodge ram continued north bound through the intersection, then off the right side of the road impacting a fence and brick column owned and maintained by the city of wilsonville. The dodge ram had enough momentum to continue through the fence and 6 foot brick column and impact a 30 foot travel trailer which was parked/stored on private property. Both the kia and the dodge ram had extensive damage, as did the travel trailer which was pushed sideways 2 to 4 feet. All 4 stabilizer jacks and the tongue jack were compromised and the trailer frame was visibly damaged/bent. The insurance company determined that the extensive damage to the 2005 dodge ram required it to be totaled, rather than repaired.
