Does Every Car Have Airbags?
1 Answers
No. Generally, the presence of airbags is determined by the car model and its intended use. Introduction to Airbag Systems: An electronic airbag system is a passive safety (see vehicle safety performance) protection system. When used in conjunction with seat belts, it provides effective collision protection for occupants. During a car collision, airbags can reduce head injury rates by 25% and facial injury rates by approximately 80%. History of Airbag Systems: Airbags were first proposed by Hetrick in August 1953, who obtained a U.S. patent for an "automobile cushion safety device." With the establishment of vehicle safety standards in various countries, the installation rate of airbags has been increasing.
