I came upon a hairpin turn on a country road in North Georgia. I applied brakes hard as was driving at 42 mph (according to engineering report). I made the turn without sliding and not colliding with anything when my side curtain airbags deployed. I hit nothing and no damage whatsoever with exception of nearly $10,000.00 interior damage from airbag deployment.
