seems pretty useless to me, if someone is not willing to wear leather, why would they pony up for the even MORE costly airbags?
besides, it seems in my uneducated view that the airbag would cause MORE extremity damage. it also looks like it would cause more rolling and flipping
i expect some asshat will try to make them mandatory though
my biggest question though what about hte legs/lower abdomen?
broken femur and pelvis are nasty and life threatening
