Why Is the Front Passenger Seat the Most Dangerous?
1 Answers
In China, vehicles are left-hand drive with right-hand traffic, placing the front passenger seat on the right side. In the event of a collision, the driver instinctively maneuvers to protect themselves, often resulting in the front passenger seat bearing the brunt of the impact and causing injuries to the passenger. In a head-on collision, occupants in the front seats are clearly at the highest risk—children are not allowed to sit in the front due to the extreme danger. Additional information: Comparatively, the rear seats are safer. From a spatial perspective, the rear seats offer the largest buffer zone. If seated in the rear and wearing a seatbelt, the likelihood of injury or fatality in common accidents is significantly lower.
