I unironically would like to disable airbags more because I fear their accidental deployment… classic cars often lack them and plenty of people drive the old cars
Accidental airbag deployment almost never happens. Car crashes happen all the time. Classic cars were death traps, they’re a tiny percentage of cars today which is why they don’t feature highly on death statistics, but you really can’t underestimate the progress that car safety has made over the years - just look at crash test footage.

idk I’ve seen some skepticism towards them, for example: “Airbags associated with increased probability of death in accidents, study finds” https://phys.org/news/2005-06-airbags-probability-death-accidents.html
I’d prefer to have the option to manually disable them and would like to have them disabled for myself I’d think
