I've watched a lot of the modern crash test videos that show where a properly-belted dummy contacts the airbag and parts of the vehicle structure. But I came across this video recently, and it gives quite a different perspective--a good reminder about why it's smart to wear seatbelts. Fortunately, I got into the habit because my home state passed a seatbelt law about the time I started driving.
It makes sense that airbags and belts work together, so the belts aren't the only thing absorbing the impact.
Watch the glass spray from the outside layer when the faces hit the inside.
