Recently had an accident at an intersection. I was struck on the drivers side by a pickup truck at about the A post. The collision caused an alteration in my course directing me into a large utility pole. The hit into the pole was fairly hard cause major damage to the front of my 2018 Accord Sport. This in addition to the considerable damage to the driver’s side. The side airbags did deploy undoubtably saving me from head injury. The front airbags did not deploy. My seatbelt restrained me limiting my injury to bruising By the belt.
My concern is; why didn’t the front bags deploy? The distance from the first impact to the second impact into the utility pole was about 40’. I estimate my speed prior to the first impact at 35-40 mph.
