Just seen an advert for the first ever pedestrian airbag

[Sam]

Well this is gonna be fun to replace, I assume that everyone remembers the insane price of replacing the GTR pedestrian bonnet poppers?

If I ever get run over I'd like it to be by a Volvo V40.

Anyone else got  the image of someone getting bumped at low speeds then a huge airbag going off and them flying about fourty yards down the road

what happens when kids realise if you kick a ball at the front of a new v40 doing 20kph a cool airbag thing pops out.

So it would turn something that could be a small parking bump into a MAHOOSIVE fooking problem as there's a HUUUUGGE air bag in front of your windscreen so you can no longer drive it. Great! 

"Volvo says the system is active at speeds between 20km/h and 50 km/h (12mph and 31mph)."  That's a good idea, so if you're speeding in a 30 zone then it won't go off  because no one ever speeds
