Just looked again, they're prolly under the white sheets on the ground
EDIT:When I see other forums laid out like this I really appreciate how John D has us set up here.

shortyboy,
It looks like the side airbags did, but the fronts did not because it was not a frontal impact.

I read the stuck spedo at 100kph. 60mph is not enough to do that damage. Must have been sliding sideways at impact or airborn and therefore stuck speedo irrelevant. Had to have been twice that speed to do that damage. Air Bags??? would not have helped.

I'd say "Ow" but I doubt the passengers ever felt anything...
