Isn't it odd the things that we just accept these days? I remember when air bags first came out, a co-worker HAD to have them. Shortly after she had a fender bender in the parking lot at work. I have to say seeing that air bag deployed was one of the worst things I've ever seen, it broke her glasses and her nose, she had two black eyes and a concussion. I said at the time "I'll never have one of those!" When they became standard, I purchased older vehicles to avoid them. To this day when I ride in my husband's truck I make him turn the passenger side air bag off.

These days I have no choice but to comply, but I resent it.
