In a frontal crash, the airbags and seatbelts automatically inflate to provide protection for the passengers. The following are some of the components that inflate during a frontal crash:
• Airbags – located in the steering wheel, dashboard, side panels, and roof pillars
• Seatbelts – designed to absorb energy from an impact and slow down occupants gradually
• Headrests – helps reduce whiplash injuries by moving forward to support heads in case of a collision
• Knee Bolsters – positioned near the driver’s knees to prevent their legs from sliding forward upon impact.
