Question 8080
Which of the following is one of the main functions of the front airbag in the event of a crash?
- Prevent the submarining effect.
- Reduce head movement and, with it, the risk of injury.
- Protect the heads of front-seat occupants in the event of a rollover.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: Reduce head movement and, with it, the risk of injury.
The front airbag slows your head down and reduces its movement in a crash, lowering the risk of injury, including neck injury. In a rollover, roof or curtain airbags protect your head, while a snug seat belt prevents submarining.
