Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: some precautions must be taken to avoid adverse effects.
You must take some precautions. Always wear your seat belt, because the airbag works together with it. Sit about 25 cm from the steering wheel, never less than 10 cm. Do not drink or carry objects in front of the airbag. The risk from glasses is small, because they usually fly off at the start of the crash.
