Default accord wont start after accident

automatic 96 accord lx. i got in an accident a few weeks ago in the rain and i tried to start it up today. gave it a jump start with another car so no battery problems, everything worked; windows, radio, etc. when i got in the accident the airbags deployed but the only thing that got damaged was the front and rear bumpers. the front bumpers are really fucked up but no frame damage, just a really messed up body. can someone help me? the engine/engine bay seems perfectly fine. thanks

There are sensors I believe on the front two corners and side of a car; if two are hit, then I believe the car will be dissabled. The reason behind this is so you will not hurt anymore of what you have, cause it'll be hard to tell if anything else is wrong. You shouldn't be driving a vehicle that has deployed airbags anyway. And I think the airbags may be your problem as well, but I have seen some vehicles in our shop with the airbags deployed. Get it fixed!
