Enhancing Safety: Airbag Effectiveness Tips from Get Drivers Ed

Airbags are a crucial safety feature in modern vehicles. At Get Drivers Ed, we emphasize the importance of understanding airbag safety in our drivers ed courses. Here’s how you can maximize the effectiveness of airbags.

Maximizing Airbag Safety and Effectiveness

Maintain Proper Seating Position: Sit at least 10 inches away from the steering wheel or dashboard to allow space for airbag deployment.

Wear Seat Belts Properly: Always wear your seatbelt, as airbags are designed to work in conjunction with seatbelts, not as a replacement.

Ensure Children Sit in the Back: Children under 13 should always ride in the back seat where they are safest, away from the force of an airbag.

Regular Vehicle Maintenance: Ensure your car’s airbag system is regularly checked as part of routine vehicle maintenance.

Avoid Tampering with Airbag Systems: Never attempt to modify or disable airbag systems, as this can compromise their effectiveness.
