Insurance Institute Video Describes Steps to Airbag Safety
This Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) video is called "Kids and
Airbags." In describing the video, IIHS points out that airbags have been effective in
saving lives and preventing injuries. They stress the benefits of airbags; however, they
warn that "airbags also are causing some adverse side effects including some serious
injuries and deaths." Since the greatest risk is to infants in rear-facing restraints and to
unrestrained children, IIHS has used crash-test footage to prepare a video demonstration
of correct infant and child restraint. According to an IIHS advertisement, "By following a
few simple precautions in the video, adults can ensure optimum protection for everyone."
