On September 27, 2010 while driving a 2002 Chevrolet silverado 1500 pickup my husband ran off the road and his truck crashed in a revene. His airbag did not deploy causing him a severe brain injury known as a dai. He spent 84 days in the hospital and had to learn to do everything again. He may never fully recover from this accident completely. Had his airbag deployed I believe his injury would have not been nearly as serious. He was driving down the interstate. Thankfully there were no other vehicles involved.
