An airbag deploys, inflates and then deflates in less then a couple of seconds. If you see crashed cars, they have deflated airbags which look like miniature empty pillow cases. What prevents you from exiting a rally car quickly is the roll cage and harness. That's why they have plumbed in fire suppression systems. | |
