Using logic & the fact that I seen cars being driven for repair after the air bag was deployed.

When air bag gets deployed, the light or atleast the code for deployed airbags gets set.

That code could be used to cut the power to motor in case of an accident, but a car would be disabled until that code was deleted just to drive the car to a body shop etc.

SO i doubt it. atleast not on a 10+ year old gm car.
