I thought I was reading on a traffic safety website(school paper) that the airbag is supposed to be aimed more towards the chest than the head. Things like seat placement affect them too, you're supposed to sit as far away from them as possible. Shorter people have to sit closer and get hit harder, hopefully such variables are adressed in future models. Dark 5.0, you do know that airbags are designed to be used in conjunction with seatbelts, not a replacement. A lot of the injuries from airbags are for that exact reason. You're really lucky things played out as they did.
