Are There Airbags in the Rear Seats of Cars?

High-end brand cars have airbags in the rear seats, while most ordinary vehicles are not equipped with them. Most car models are equipped with front airbags for the driver and front passenger, front and rear side airbags, and side curtain airbags, but models with rear seat airbags are still rare, making them a high-end safety feature. Rear side airbags are positioned on the side of the rear seats near the windows. Typically, there are seven sensors in the car. When the sensors detect a side impact, they automatically deploy to protect the safety of the driver or front passenger. Airbags mainly consist of components such as sensors, a microprocessor, a gas generator, and the airbag itself. The sensors and microprocessor are used to determine the severity of the crash and transmit signals. The gas generator, based on the signals, triggers an ignition action, igniting solid fuel to produce gas that inflates the airbag, causing it to rapidly expand. The airbag capacity is approximately (50-90) liters. Precautions for airbags: Do not place items above or in front of the airbag. The force exerted when an airbag deploys is extremely strong, and items could be ejected, causing secondary injuries. Always wear a seatbelt. Without a seatbelt, the airbag can become a ticking time bomb. Contact between an occupant and an incompletely or prematurely deployed airbag can result in unbalanced impact forces, causing greater harm to the occupant. Do not let children sit in the front passenger seat. In an accident, the immense impact force can cause the seatbelt to fracture a child's sternum, and the airbag can suffocate the child.
