Failure to control? He obviously hasn't seen you drive.

Glad he's safe, and it's too bad they didn't..??

Except that the car is pretty clearly totaled so I doubt it matters.

With the airbags not going off, sometimes insurance companies make it more difficult to say "totaled"

The airbag sensor is behind the radiator. It doesn't even look like the rad support is deformed. Had the airbag deployed it probably would've caused more harm then good. Sucks about the car though...But I doubt it would be a write off.

Looking at the pics indicated that the pole contact was offset enough that it probably did not exert enough force in the middle of the bumper to set off the airbag deploy sensor. If the insurance company chooses to repair the car, I would take it to a Nissan shop and have them run a full electrical (including airbag sensors, if possible) before officially accepting the car. Hopefully the insurance she has will do the right thing for your Uncle!

as I told him the same thing that he might hit at an angle that was why it didn't trigger the sensor.

if damage to car = more than 50% of the value of the vehicle, then totaled. Airbags or no.
