I was in ana accident on sept. 4, 2002. I could not stop in time for the wreck that happened 1/4 mile in front of us so I proceeded to slam into the rear-end of the truck in front of me. Although I was not injured the sherif said the air bag should have deployed but it did not! I could have been seriously injured and that could have saved my life but it did not work!
