Air Bag Not Deploy problem #1

While stopped in traffic I was hit from behind by a car at minimum going 40mph while propelled my car into the vehicle in front of me. The entire front and back ends of my car are smashed in/hanging on and my air bags did not deploy. Autobody shop indicated the air bags should have gone off with that much damage.
