I think we have the plot for the next MTV Jackass episode.

It's really nice to wear!

Kids aren’t allowed to sit in front seats of vehicles because they air bag could kill them - will they now not be allowed to cross the street?

Ummmm.....really bad news.
How long before the nanny-state gov't decides this is just great and mandates that ALL new cars have this?
And how much will it cost us?

Some blonde runs over me at 20 miles per hour.... I hit the airbag over the window as I bounce off the car and on to the pavement... then she can’t see and she runs over 17 more people before she thinks to hit the brake. This sounds like something Obama will and his department of transportation will require on all new vehicles at some point....

Means you gotta start shooting them instead of running them down... I guess....

remeinds me of when I used to take my four and the neighbor kids to the lake. Did you say “double-buckle?” an 8 passenger with at least 13 buckled in and the kids in the middle row holding both the truck inner tubes out the windows.
We drove the back way...on tiptoes.

Soon the federal government will require us all to wear these when we venture outdoors.

I’ve got a better approach.
The car will detect them before they are hit, and send a text message to their phone: “Look up! There’s a car coming!”
To: kjam22
Will the airbag know which way to deploy in England?
