Camry traveling E/B on 4 lane divided highway. Late model Buick skylark traveling w/B turned left at crossover into path of Camry. Impact at 45 mph. Moderate to severe damage to both doors of Buick. Buick was pushed into concrete filled steel post doing moderate to severe damage to left side of car and bending post about 20-30 degrees. There was no braking by Camry driver. My question is simple-- should Camry airbag have employed?
