Great Argument, btw. Oh, I got an Airbag on my car, get rid of the
brakes please. I don't need them anymore.
That's the wrong way round. I have brakes and drive safely, so an airbag
isn't essential. Which isn't to say I'd get it removed if I had one.
Maybe, seat belts are also not essential, but in many countries the
usage is mandatory, for a good reason.
Agreed. And airbags may become compulsory too. As long as they're well
engineered, of course; having explosives go off during a crash needs to
be managed carefully.
But the question is one of priority. Avoiding crashing (good/adequate
brakes, tyres, suspension, roads etc etc) should come before saving you
if you do (seatbelts, airbags, ambulances etc etc). It's always a good
idea to have both types, of course, because preventative measures are
unlikely to ever be perfect.
