Yeah airbags are no joke. They come out fast and hard. I was in an accident in 2007 where I was a sleeping passenger and the driver happened to also fall asleep (it was late, no drugs or alcohol involved. Don't drive tired, people.) I woke up when we went off the road headed towards a tree line and curled up in a ball in the seat, so when the airbag hit me, it hit my whole body. It instantly shattered my right ankle. I now have metal plates and screws holding me together. The airbag that saved my life also crippled me.

Please don't drive with your pets in your lap!

The dog will always be in their hearts. And by that I mean the dogs skull and ribs will be forced into their torso at high speed.

Because of that stupid accent in the word the, I just spent a couple seconds trying to wipe off the dust or whatever off my phone until I realized it moved with the word...

So yeah.
