Question 5785
At what distance should you position yourself in the seat for the airbag to be effective?
- Between 10 and 25 centimeters from the steering wheel.
- With a seat belt on, the airbag is not necessary.
- At a distance of less than 10 centimeters.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: Between 10 and 25 centimeters from the steering wheel.
Sit so there is about 25 cm between the steering wheel and the closest part of your body, and never less than 10 cm. Any closer, and the airbag hits you directly as it inflates. Wearing a seat belt does not make the airbag unnecessary because the two work together.
