Claim 10:
11. A method of activating a display device in a moving object, the method comprising:
determining a driving mode in the moving object;
determining the display device and an airbag, which are activated based on the driving mode of the moving object; and
displaying a content in the activated display device,
wherein determining whether or not to activate the display device comprises:
folding an airbag module into the moving object and activating a first display device in a first driving mode, and
keeping a position of a steering wheel of the moving object and deactivating the first display device in a second driving mode,

wherein the moving object predicts a collision possibility of the moving object in the first driving mode, and the moving object keeps an activating state of the first display device, when the moving object predicts avoiding a collision based on the collision possibility,
wherein information on the collision possibility and a possibility of avoiding the collision is continually updated through machine learning,
wherein the first display device is comprised corresponding to a part in which the steering wheel is folded,
the first display device is a flexible display with a rollable type and is located in a cover unit covering the folded steering wheel,
wherein the flexible display is rotated in one direction on an upper region of the cover unit and is extended in the cover unit when the first display device is activated, and,
wherein the flexible display is rotated in another direction on the upper region to reduce the size of the flexible display when the first display device is deactivated.
