Question 8044

Can the airbag's deployment become dangerous in an accident?

  1. No.
  2. Yes, if the seat belt is not being worn.
  3. Yes, always.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: Yes, if the seat belt is not being worn.

Yes, if you are not wearing your seat belt. The airbag inflates very quickly, and without a seat belt your body hits it as it deploys, which can cause serious injuries. With your seat belt properly worn, the airbag protects you.
