What is the ideal distance you should keep from the airbag?
Active and passive safety
Explanation
To ensure **safety** when using an **airbag**, it is essential to maintain an adequate distance between the chest and the steering wheel. The recommended distance is **25 centimeters**. This is because, when inflated, the airbag deploys with great force and speed. If you are too close, you could receive a strong blow from the airbag, which could cause injuries.
Additionally, a correct driving posture not only improves comfort but also contributes to safety. Being too close to the steering wheel can cause **fatigue** and hinder the necessary movements to handle the vehicle effectively. On the other hand, being too far away may force you to lean forward, which is also dangerous.
Therefore, maintaining a distance of **25 centimeters** not only protects against the impact of the airbag but also helps maintain an appropriate and safe driving posture.
