Damn...that's a pretty solid hit. And odds are that the airbag would not go off in this situation since there was no passenger in the seat and the impact was a side impact on the passenger side (thus no side airbag deployment).

Regardless, that sucks man. Who's fault was the accident? I'm assuming the other driver.

How does it look from inside the car? Would the passenger have been hit by the door?

I like how you can see the reinforcing bars in the doors. They worked.

That should do it for the rattles, lol.

Seriously though, is your B-pillar bent?

If not, you should get away with not much more than replacing the 2 doors, and having your airbags inspected.

Glad to hear that you walked away ok. I would definitely get the side airbag checked out. Acura might have a law suit with this one.

Why are you guys stressin about the airbags? The side front and side impact airbags do not go off when this is no one sitting in the passenger seat. The car acted as it was supposed to in that type of collision.

He was hit from the passenger side. Why would his driver's side airbag go off?

theres no possible way he could get hurt by being hit on the passenger side? i dunno, i was thinking about this for a long time and wondering if there would be a reason for the airbag to go off or not on a side impact...i dunno.
