There are many types of collisions which
might not necessarily require SRS side
airbag deployment. In the event of accidents
like those illustrated, the SRS side
airbag may not deploy depending on the
level of accident forces involved.
Hitting a curb, edge of pavement or hard
surface
Falling into or jumping over a deep hole
Landing hard or vehicle falling

Other information:
When the system monitors that the driver
may be inattentive, it warns the driver.
When the inattentive driving warning activates,
the buzzer sounds and an interrupt
display appears on the combination meter
display.
When the EyeSight system has detected a
vehicle ahead or obstacle in the forward
direction, the inattentive driving warning
may activate at earlier timing than usual...
Two separate circuits
Your vehicle has two separate circuit brake
systems. Each circuit works diagonally
across the vehicle. If one circuit of the
brake system should fail, the other half of
the system still works. If one circuit fails,
the brake pedal will go down much closer
to the floor than usual and you will need to
press it down much harder...
