The vehicle was at a complete stop and was hit head on by another vehicle, however none of the air bags deployed upon impact. Which resulted in the driver being seriously injured.

I am a captain with the fire department and responded to a 2 car head on crash. Other vehicle had airbag deployment, while this Navigator had a major front end collision and air bags were loaded (not activated) on our arrival. Only one occupant in the Navigator was injured, minor, but required ambulance transportation. Colton fire also responded, and colton P.D. was the investigative authority, sgt. Steve davis was the officer in charge. The owner of the Navigator, linda jones of 1245 West "C" street, colton ca, 92324 stated that the air bag was not de-activated on the passenger side. The frontal impact of this collision should have certainly caused air bag deployment.
