      Honestly I think we should invest much more for increasing the safety of our transportation, planes, automobile, trains etc. We spend lot of efforts increasing speed, comfort, style, without matching these advances with the appropriate security systems.

      I thought about spraying foam mixed with rubberized undercoating in the fenders of my car, i would imagine it would help in a crash. and i would coat the rest of my car with rubberized undercoating. wouldn't even have to worry about people slamming their door against your's anymore...

      Advances have been made in all the areas you referenced:
      Airliners may soon be equipped with dual Heads Up Displays, Low Light Television systems, and Infrared Vision systems. There are automatic unusual attitude recovery systems being tested.
      Automobiles are getting warning and automatic systems to ensure somewhat faster braking and collision avoidance.
      Trains are getting better speed zone and automatic braking systems.

    When NASA dropped the Mars rover, I believe it was completely surrounded in a cocoon of airbags. Some years ago, I wondered if cars could just have all of these external airbags to cushion them during a nasty rollover.

    I think that most people who would be interested in an external airbag are less concerned with the cost of false alarms, and more concerned about their safety. It would be interesting to see a test where a car with an external airbag on the front collided with a car with an airbag on the side.

      Airbags are not for reducing damage. If you notice modern interior airbags actually rip the dash and steering wheel open to deploy... airbags is to protect the passengers from impact and nothing more regardless how much damage it does to the car. In fact, it's more favorable for car manufacturer to inflict damage to the car because a new one will get purchased.
