Effectiveness of airbag restraints in frontal crashes - what European field studies tell us

UK and German field accident data show that European airbag systems provide a 35% and 56% reduction in AIS 2+ injury to the cranium and face when belted drivers sustain MAIS 2+ injury in frontal crashes. The highest benefits of airbags were seen in crashes exceeding 30 km/h delta v. Airbags do not a...
