One another group that I am on, a mom posted saying that her and her son were in a serious collision where they were rear ended on the highway by a car going 95 mph. She said that she hit her head on the seat and her airbag went off. She said that her ERF son was knocked unconscious and is now in critical condition at the hospital. She said that the police officer who responded told her that because of the physics involved, her son would have been fine if he was FF.
If this story is true, I feel sad for the family and what they are going through. The mom said she blames herself for keeping her child RF longer, resulting in his serious injury.
At the same time, some details of her story do not make sense. For example, airbags do not deploy in rear-end collisions. Second, I remember another story about a family that was in a serious rear-end collision, hit while at a complete stop by someone going 65 mph and the RF child was fine. I know that there are some collisions that result in serious injury no matter which way the child is facing.
What do you think about this story? I still strongly believe in ERF, but if this story is true, it can cause some people to question the safety of ERF.
