It doesn't look like a hard enough impact to have deployed the airbags. It looks like it was up high, and just crumpled the hood. The headlight on the passenger side isn't even broken. Also, there are sensors that detect how close you are sitting to the airbag. If you had the seat positioned too close, it may have purposely not deployed the bags to protect you.

Was the airbag light on before the crash or just after?

I'm glad everyone was OK. If you do sue, I would just like to thank you for helping to jack up all of our insurance rates, not to mention the sticker prices on future new cars.

Be careful about throwing around lawsuit threats. Based on the info you gave the wreck was your fault (since you rear-ended the guy in front of you.) If anyone has the right to sue in this situation, it would be the person you hit suing you.
