Grief!! Considering the size of the vehicle she's driving, those airbags look a little oversize but they obviously did the job!
Wonder where I can get a pair like that fitted :think:

Probably, but in this case I won't be cursing at Microsoft since the crash produced some rather interesting side effects. I have to admit though, I have never experienced the same result when my bloody computer crashes to desktop.
