Most car users think that seatbelt alone is enough to maintain safety during a hard collision. So, do not be surprised if some car manufacturers consider the specification of car airbags staying as a safety feature. In fact, airbags are one of the driving safety features that greatly help prevent passengers when an accident occurs. Airbag work system is when a hard collision is detected, the car sensor sends a signal immediately so that airbags expands.
Airbags will expand to protect vital areas such as head, neck, and chest. Without airbags as a cushion, a body that is only held up by a seatbelt will potentially lead to injury to the neck and chest.The position of the airbag itself depends on the type of car, there is only installed on the front (driver and assistant) and there is also attached to the passenger side (front, side, and curtain airbags) such as Nissan Serena.There are confusing things related to the airbag that raises some questions, "Is the expanding airbags going to block the breathing?" The answer is No.
Airbags are designed in such a way as to be tested to ensure safety during an accident. You need to know, the material used for airbags is a thin nylon with small holes. From this hole, the gas that causes airbags to expand will come out and the airbag will deflate slowly. "There's a hole in the airbag. Nitrogen gets out of the hole and does not harm anyone, the airbag expands due to the gas Nitrogen is blown into the air bag of thin nylon fabric. The air we breathe contains 78% Nitrogen gas. So, this gas is safe inhaled.
There is smoke as the airbag develops. If you see a cloud of smoke filling the car, do not panic first. The cloud of smoke is actually cornmeal or talcum powder used to prevent sticky airbags while still in folded condition. Very dangerous if the airbags stick when there is an accident. Now, people already know how important the presence of airbags. On the way there are always unexpected things that can happen, so make sure you always feel safe and comfortable when driving by choosing a car equipped with airbags.
