Driving in a car with airbags is generally safe for pregnant learners. Airbags are designed to enhance safety and can provide additional protection for both the driver and the passenger, including pregnant women.
In the event of an accident, airbags can help reduce the risk of severe injuries.
However, as your pregnancy progresses, it is advisable to adjust your seating position in relation to the airbags. As your bump grows, move your seat slightly further back from the steering wheel to ensure there is enough space between you and the airbag.
This adjustment can help mitigate any potential impact on your abdomen from the airbag during deployment.
It’s essential to strike a balance between ensuring your comfort and maintaining proper safety measures. Regularly adjust your seat and seatbelt position to accommodate your changing body shape and to optimize both your safety and that of your baby.
By taking these precautions and adhering to recommended safety guidelines, you can confidently continue your driving lessons and focus on developing the necessary skills to become a responsible and safe driver.
