Hi Rachel, and thanks for the reply.
I have heard so many stories like yours and so many
that were much worse with folks actually getting killed
by improper deployment in low speed collisions - it's
just sickening.
The key question IMHO:
How reliable can the controls be after 10+ years of
'waiting' to deploy ?
There were at one time military tires that would easily
last 100,000 miles - and I got a set at an auction for
my old truck at the time (they outlasted the truck !);
I have never heard of these again since...my point -
so many good uses of technology exist but are kept
silent for reasons we'd generally disagree with, while
some technology should be far more perfect before it
is trusted with people's lives, but it is seldom done
that way.....very sad, I think.
Best Wishes,
mark
