Airbags have a reserve supply of energy to deploy. If your car died while driving and you coasted into someone's back bumper hard enough, they absolutely would deploy.

Air bags typically don't have sensors in the rear on older cars. The damage isn't that bad in the front so i could see them not deploying. On an older car, lots of times when the air bags deploy the insurance company totals the vehicle. So they don't want them to deploy unless it is necessary to prevent premature totaling of the car and possible injury if it is not needed. It would depend on where the sensors are placed and where the impact is aswell. I know on a 93 foxbody I was looking at there were two sensors, one behind each headlight.

I took my front end completely apart and back together and never saw any sensors.
Yeah that's the only airbag thing Ive seen and Ive had my car completely gutted. Unless there are some behind the dash?
How's that? I can understand a little recoil, but nothing like a head-on.

Crazy damage though! I really hope the guy in the Lumina was hauling ***, otherwise I don't like my chances if something like that ever happens to me!
