Your air bags did not deploy because there was not enough frontal impact to trigger the sensors. Having them go off in this accident may have caused more damage to you.

Wow that looks pretty bad. I'm amazed at how well the windshield frame held up. And I'm glad your alright man, that really sucks.

I'm always impressed with the relative safety of this car. that's now 4 rollover accidents I've seen pics of where there were no injuries suffered. I'm glad to hear you're alright, but it looks like the car's totalled. even if they didn't total it, I would not want to take the risk of having another accident if the windshield frame has been at all damaged...that would really be the life-or-death factor. Anyways, good luck with your situation, and I hope it doesn't keep you from enjoying the road!
