  1. Des airbags qui explosent (suite)

    "Soyons honnêtes, il n’y a pas d’obligation légale d’arrêter de conduire son véhicule. Ensuite, il n’y a aucune solution qui est proposée aux automobilistes, donc qu’est-ce qui va se passer en fait ?"
    … dit Christelle Sauger, vice-présidente de l’association des victimes d’airbags et sœur d’une victime : la1ere.francetvinfo.fr/reunion

  2. #Design : certains airbags explosent et projettent des éclats de métal et de plastique sur les conducteur/trices.

    Le scandale des gonfleurs du fabricant japonais Takata - qui a fait faillite entre-temps - gêne le secteur de l'automobile depuis 2014 : le gaz vieillit mal dans les climats chauds et humides.

    The French Sugar Business in the Eighteenth Century by Robert Louis Stein

    Plantations in the French Antilles (principally in Haiti) became major sugar producers in the 18th century, and France became a main distributor to other European countries. Stein provides a clear and coherent (if sometimes repetitious) explanation of the three-pronged trade; ships from France carried slaves from Africa to the Antilles, and then returned to Europe with sugar. The slaves, most of whom died of disease and overwork, were victims of the French sugar trade.
