Can the air bags be dumped when doing 70MPH?
I have developed from day one a paranoia of accidentally
hitting this switch while driving.
Similiar, but not exactly like blowing an air bag?
Seems like there would be a lock-out to prevent this
but haven't found a mention of this in all my reading.

Bob,
They can definitely be dumped anytime that there is sufficient air
pressure to operate the switch, as I have accidentally done it myself
and after that I made a guard cover to go over the switch, just to
prevent it from happening again. Luckily all that happened was I got
an instant rough ride, but no damage to the bags, it just comes down
on the internal rubber bumper, inside of the bag.
I shouldn't have had my hand down by there while driving, but I did
and learned from it, I have never learned anything from a mistake that
didn't cost me and this one scared the h#@! out of me and it cost me
the last two hairs on my head!!.
