Seatbelts?
Did you and/or your passenger have seatbelts on?
I hope all are OK.

I'm ok, not a scratch on me. I didn't even touch the airbags. Also, fortunately there were no other cars involved which is amazing as this happened during the morning rush hour.

Glad to hear you're ok. I see you ended up pointed the wrong direction, did you hydroplane?

Looks like that truck is going to the big salvage yard in the sky.

The air bags will do that when they deploy.

Yep, it's the dash panel that's attached that does it. See it in the first pic. Shoots up on the backside of the bag into the windshield.

a few years ago I had Durango air-bags deploy and the windshield didn't spider - just the rest of the truck was totaled!
