Question type: General

Today I put a shiny paper bag on the passenger seat and the "side air bag

happened?

Almost nothing! That's what floored me. It was a decorative gift bag for Christmas gifts and weighed a couple ounces. Is there some way the reflective brightness of the bag could activate some kind of sensor?

Wow--that's what I thought...but I swear the light came on my dash when the EMPTY bag was placed on the seat...fascinating!
