I was in a single car accident. I hit a guard rail, went through it and rolled down a 30 foot embankment. I suffered neck and shoulder injuries and back injuries. I have not driven a car since this accident. In the emergency room a nurse said I had a possible spinal compression fracture. I thought my car was suppose to have air bags, I saw the car for the first time since the accident yesterday. The whole car is beat up. . . The roof, the front, the back both sides, and not even 1 of the air bags deployed. I am so grateful my car had such a high safety rating. . . Yeah right. Now I am afraid to drive any car. And now the words air bag safety are a joke to me. **dimsii ivoq entry posted after 12/12/02 cut over to artemis**768013.
