It's timed... basically, when the car explodes into a fireball, the fuel is shut off. (joke)

... there is no inertia switch. They're common in race cars, but they didn't start showing up in cars until like the late 1990s. I know my 2009 Ford Explorer has one, and I think my 2002 Crown Victoria LX has one. To be honest, I don't think the Fiero really needs one. It takes a hell of a lot for a Fiero to flip over.
