When D3 rolled her Hyundai Elantra at 65 mph, the airbags deployed, and she walked away from this wreck. ![]() ![]() ![]() |

That reminds me, I’ve had 3 letters from Honda about a recall on the passenger airbag on my ‘08 Fit, I just haven’t bothered making an appointment yet. |

Please get them done. I'd hate to hear about somebody having to pick Riley up with a stick and a spoon... |

Nah, it’s the passenger airbag, so I’d be ok, they’d just be picking up my passenger. |

Mrs. George had just come home from a total knee replacement 48 hours earlier. I was on call, stuck at the hospital. She called me saying "D3 has had an accident. It's bad, but she's OK." Seems some asshats were racing on I55. One of them sideswiped her, causing her to lose control and roll the car into the ditch and onto the frontage road. The state trooper, when he was summoned, told her "I was expecting to pull someone dead from the car." She got some bruises, but that car saved her life afaic. The guy who sideswiped her, much to his credit, stopped and called 911. |

Wow - that looks really bad, but glad that she is/was okay!!!! It is amazing how much safer cars have gotten over the past many years. It is nice to know that the technology and building of cars has gotten better. |

Crazy. I remember when you first posted that. |
