deflate so quickly that it is often
unnoticeable during the collision.
Warning
If handled improperly the airbag
systems can be triggered in an
explosive manner.
The driver should sit back as far

control of the vehicle. If you are
sitting too close to the airbag, it
can cause death or serious injury
when it inflates.
