Motorcycle Wearable Airbags 2010

I thought this was interesting.

What do you think?
Would you use one it they were available?
What keeps it from popping?

I think the body suit was more effective, unless those bags are intended to hold the head from flexing. Anything positive if you are going to crash will help, but are they going to help in the collision with that car that you are being thrown into?

That sort of thing used to happen when I let one off in my leather trousers

I don't know for sure, but I've got a feeling that if I try to corner at that speed on my trike, that thing ain't gonna do me a lot of good.

Even at that, if I'm wearing jeans it's not gonna save my butt!
