Question 6300
Seat belts and airbags are systems of...
- passive safety.
- active safety.
- efficient driving.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: passive safety.
The seat belt holds you in your seat, and the airbag cushions the impact against the steering wheel or dashboard. Both reduce injuries when a crash is already happening, which makes them passive safety systems. Active safety systems, such as brakes, help you avoid an accident.
