What is the real world experience with children and SABs?

NHTSA crash investigators actively seek out cases where SABs have deployed in crashes. So far, 92 cases have been investigated; of these only 6 involve children. There have been no moderate or serious injuries to children from SAB deployments, and only one minor injury – a skin laceration from an SAB cover. This small number of cases involves a limited number of vehicles with SABs and may not be representative of the variety of SAB systems currently available. NHTSA continues to closely monitor the real world performance of SABs involving children and adults.
