If a vehicle's occupants do not use their seat belts, is the airbag effective?

  1. Yes.
  2. Yes, if they are seated correctly.
  3. No, and it may cause serious injuries.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: No, and it may cause serious injuries.

An airbag is designed to supplement the seat belt, not replace it. Without a seat belt, the occupant may strike the airbag as it deploys and suffer serious injuries.
