On 7/26/2022 approx 8:00 am I was driving on brighton clopton rd when this flat bed wrecker was backing out on highway and I was looking down to make sure my speedometer was at 30 mph all of a sudden I crashed into this bed of the wrecker, (not one) airbag deployed my knees, shins, chest bones, hurt like crazy, head, I was taken to hospital for evaluation, I attach some pictures from my crash, the officer had me to move out of drivers seat just in case the airbags did finally go off. Why not they didn't imployed " air bags did not go off.... why ???????????"
