It may well be that the ammonium nitrate was the part of the detonation charge for inflating the air bags.

It would still be a huge safety violation.

A truckload of AN should be shipped with no potential source of detonation also on board.

I believe sodium azide is used commonly for airbag inflation charges. It may be part of a mixture that is vendor specific though.
