How Serious Does a Collision Have to Be for Airbags to Deploy

Airbags are designed to protect you in severe crashes, but they don’t go off in every accident. In modern vehicles, airbag sensors measure the impact and determine whether airbags should be deployed. This decision is influenced by factors such as the speed you’re traveling, the type of crash, and where your vehicle is hit. Typically, airbags will deploy in collisions at speeds over 10 miles per hour. For example, if you hit a stationary object or are involved in a rear-end collision, the airbags may go off. However, seat belts alone may be enough to keep you safe in these crashes, and the airbags might not deploy.
