So my brother was in an accident today...

Yeah, the impact bar isn't even damaged that badly, and that's where the sensors are typically located (around the rails). He's lucky though if he walks away without any issues.

He was sitting in traffic on a county road when a car came up and slammed into him from behind, causing the 3 cars in front of him to hit each other as well. Some how he walked away without a scratch, even though his airbags didn't deploy...his poor WRX, his pride and joy, was not so lucky. Some how the motor caught fire and burned his car to the ground. He apparently begged the first cop on the scene to use their fire extinguisher but was denied.

It is very unsafe to approach a burning car filled with gasoline, I don't blame the cop at all. Hopefully he had full coverage.
