Why wouldn't the air bags have deployed?
Thanks, that's stuff I wasn't aware of. I did notice to the apparent minor damage. Figured there would have been plastic pieces flying all over the place.Airbags are pretty smart these days and don't deploy on crashes they aren't needed in *typically*, but like all machines can operate outside parameters. They know if you have your seatbelt on, know how fast the car is decelerating and if it's rolling, etc. It's not just an impact sensor in the bumper these days.
Note the relatively low speed and little damage to the Jeep's bumper. Note the Jeep driver didn't bite the steering wheel...
No.That video was totally fabricated, looked like something out of GTA Wilderness Edition
A Model 3 is not what I would call an expensive car.Why would someone not have full coverage on an expensive car unless they could afford to absorb the cost of a crash themself?
Dumbass.

I mean same with comprehensive, really. I have full coverage too. I've had two vehicles over the last 15 years totaled by hail damage and if I added up what they payed out, I'm probably ahead by a good bit. I'd have just been **** out of luck if I hadn't kept comprehensive up.I don't know enough about Teslas to recognize the models by sight, but I see Model 3s for sale for $15k-ish on cars.com pretty readily. If he had insurance they'd almost certainly total it out.
I still run full coverage on all of our vehicles, the cost difference is so negligible between collision only and full coverage it doesn't make much sense to run naked.
Graphic video…
I watched this video a couple weeks ago. I was impressed at the performance of an EV truck but not surprised at the lack of emphasis on the opportunity costs associated with EVs. (Note that I am not anti-EV. I just don’t think they’re ready for my lifestyle yet.) The math slightly leans towards use of an EV truck…but only if you’re going to pull that load within its charge range. For me, this is the achilles heel of EV—range and recharge time.
If you’re the kind that will drive nearly always in town or very short commutes where you will have ample down time for recharging, an EV may well suit you.
