Deployment of airbags occurs in a fraction of a second at high speed. Therefore, it is very important that the driver and all passengers maintain a correct posture throughout the journey.
Emergency braking before a collision causes the unbelted passenger to lean forward sharply into the airbag deployment zone. In this case, very serious damage is inevitable, up to deadly. This applies to children in the same way.
The protective effect of airbags is determined by the type of accident, the direction of impact and the speed of the vehicle.
Decisive for the deployment of the airbags is the vehicle deceleration registered by the control unit. If during a collision the deceleration is less than a certain, predetermined value, then the front, side and window airbags do not deploy. Therefore, not every collision can lead to the deployment of airbags.
