Bad luck John. I'm glad that you're generally OK. I should like my
sons to have that experience (perhaps telepathically) so that they
drive defensively... why not all young, male drivers while I am about
it. The violence of a smash is quite traumatic and it makes you
understand how vulnerable you and all other drivers on the road are.
I have never heard or felt an airbag inflation, so thanks for the
description. I'll try and avoid it <wry smile>

Hello List,
Been catching up on the mail. At least I've been able to keep the
deluge downloaded most of the time and been reading bits and pieces.
Gary Edwards knows basically what happened as I advised him by email
likely about the time he was traveling to Indianapolis.
Did the "Airbag Bash" just after noon on Wednesday, Sept. 4th at a
traffic signal intersection less than a mile from home. With light
having just turned green no more than about 3-4 seconds, an oncoming
light truck turned left into me as I was going straight through the
intersection. Result: head-on collision. Middle of solid metal
truck bumper impales itself on the left front of my large 4-Dr sedan.
