STOMPer Yoda was shocked that his car airbags failed to deploy even after a nasty accident that left the bonnet of his Toyota Altis buckled and twisted.
Here's what the STOMPer wrote in an email today (Nov 20):
"I crashed my car on the night of Friday the 13th.
"I took a corner on a wet road and lost control of my vehicle, skidding 30-40 metres before hitting a concrete wall.
"Thankfully nobody was hurt. I sustained whiplash injuries (neck strain and muscle spasms) as well as bruises to the chest.
"My question is, why didn't the airbags of my 3-year-old Toyota Altis deploy? The passenger side of the car was heavily damaged, to the point the door could not be opened.
"I was lucky to escape with only minor injuries, but it could have been a whole lot worse. What is the point of a safety feature built into a car if it doesn't deploy when your life is in danger?"
