| Description of the problem | I was traveling sw around 35mph and entered an intersection with the green light. Another (unlicensed) driver also traveling at the same speed entered the intersection traveling ne, his light was red, but he ran it. My front end impacted his drivers side (near the front tire) both of his air bags deployed, yet neither of mine did. My front end (frame) bent like a v-shape, and fluid from the radiator drained onto the hot engine. I had to be evacuated from the car by the local emt and was taken by ambulance to emergency. I have photos that would love to share especially toyota, so they can explain to me why the air bags failed, and put me into what is going to be months of therapy. |
