Highlander Hybrid 6-cyl

  • 84,000 miles
Vehicle a ran a red light while being distracted by putting on her shoe and ran a red light at the intersection. Vehicle B crashed into the side of the vehicle a and vehicle B has body damage to front bumper fenders and hood and body rails. Vehicle B was totaled out by the insurance co. No air bags deployed in neither vehicle. Mileage was around 25-30 miles per hour and no one was seriously hurt. Why have air bags for safety if they do not deploy" need stiffer penalties for distracted driving, driver a was cited for running the red light. I was also told by the insurance company that industry took out body frames to cut gas mileage. Where is the safety when lives are at risk"
