2nd) Why did the curtain bags blow? With no damage to either side of the vehicle, I would have thought the car would be smart enough not to use them. You know, like its smart enough not to use the passenger front if there is no one in the front passenger seat.

Regardless, the car is most likely totaled, had it not be, however, I would have tried to get BMW to pick up the tab on those side bags, I don't see why they blew. Does the cars movement have some type of role in that determination?
I think it is not always as easy as we might think--I was Tboned by a TrailBlazer in my E92 back in 2007--my car was totaled--and no airbags came out.

I was really surprised at the time. In this case, I am surprised the steering wheel airbag did not deploy.....
