Video: Honda Ridgeline airbags unexpectedly deploy

Linky

"Conor Twomey has published an interesting video documenting his unusual experience with a 2006 Honda Ridgeline. Twomey was testing the pickup for his website, The Online Car Show, when the drive-side curtain airbags deployed. He was performing a mild drift around a corner on a gravel road when curtain unexpectedly went off. Twomey didn't hit anything, nor did any wheels leave the ground. The car was traveling at a relatively low speed of 30 or 35 mph, according to the report."

Good thing he wasn't actually off-road or anything. That's two Ridgeline disasters now in the hands of testers. Wasn't it Autoweek that blew out a set of shocks on a backroad foray?
