THIS crash test has made me dislike our car without side or side-curtain airbags even more.

Maybe if I show this to my husband he'll want to replace sooner rather than later. That being said, in the back seat, in a Prosport (deep head wings), how bad off are kids? That is, versus a car with side air-bags? It's the spare car and is only used on weekends with them. Normally we're in the van.
I'm thinking not good, but how bad? Obviously we'd opt for better protection if we had it. Wish I could magically make those airbags appear!
If we wait until 2014 we'd probably get a backup camera standard, which I do want.
