"Since 1990, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has
recorded 175 fatalities as a result of an air bag deployment. To date,
104 of these deaths have been children, while the remaining 71 have been
adults. With more than 3.3 million air bag deployments and more than
6,377 lives saved and countless injuries prevented, the benefits of air
bags are dramatic. Still, these 175 fatalities should be examined. (See
State-by-State breakdown)" <http://www.nsc.org/partners/state.htm>
Thats for america, cant see the rest of the world having a huge increase
in airbag deaths vs saved...

But not if you sat in the seat.
Plus think about it,,If you rammed a brick wall that hard for the
colum to go thru ya cheast cos ya sitting in the door frame,, you
would have to be doing 200Mph....
Now if the colum ant on a angle why does the uni in the collapsable
joint wear out?.
More people die from air bags than they save... Know fact..
small bang in supermarket carpark, air bag goes off and push's ya nose
into your brain..

Its called a death spear because its a solid bar pointed at your
stomach/chest area. If you have a head on crash you can be impaled
by the non collapsable column can be driven towards you as the
front crumples. Also the reason we now have air bags in the
steering wheel.

G’day all
I am strengthening my old group G P510 shell and I am
going to get all the fabrication done whilst on the
rotisserie, for ease of planning and fitting. The steering
column I have always used is a spear type, connected into
the steering box. I plan to fit an inline steering
quickener in the column and hence wouldn’t mind a
collapsible with couplings to the steering box.
Has anyone had any experience in sourcing a collapsible
column that has coupling connections to the steering box?
Thanks
Barney
