Description of the problem	A person pulled out on me from my right. I hit their front drivers side. More than a foot of my frame was sticking out from the front of my truck. Hood folded. Drivers door jammed shut, dash pushed towards me. My airbags never came out. My truck was considered a total loss. The state trooperrs, county constable,ems personel and wrecker drivers all told me i was very fortunate to have not been more severely injured due to the fact that the airbags did not deploy. Thay said with the location of impact, speed (55) and type of impact they definately should have went off. I hit my right shoulder and breast on the steering wheel. It has been three weeks and i still cannot rise my right arm. I have mutiple contusions on my right breast which resuted in a large blood clot forming that will have to be sugically removed.
