The problem with the airbag concept is this. As it deploys, it’ll send you clear of your bike.....into the traffic behind you.Uhhh.... No! They don't use a car airbag that launches you off the bike!

I’m just going with what I remember when they announced this back in the late ‘90s or early 00’s.
That model was a kind of parachute that yanked the rider off of the bike.
(I admit, I haven’t watched TV for a number of years, and was going with what they said in the original article -which wasn’t much)
