Bullbars are another thing that can affect bullbars.

There was a rule years ago that 4WD vehicles fitted with bull bars were not allowed in the Melbourne CBD, because even with a small hit on pedestrians, killed them.... so bull bars got a bad name being very pedestrian unfriendly!

I think he meant bullbars can effect the way airbags deploy?

Bullbars can also mess around with the way crumple zones work.

Oh I was trying to work out what lee meant.
Yes, I think there could be something to that... but a surely, bull bar or not, a huge jolt should deploy airbags... particularly side airbags so your head doesn’t hit hard sideways... that causes a lot of serious or deadly injury.

it depends on they they connect the bull bars to the car ... weld them directly to the chassis and unless you hit hard enough to crumple the bull bar onto the bumper and trigger the bags, the airbags are never going to deploy
