Correct answer

  • Clesiones cervicales y de impactos contra elementos del interior del vehículo.neck injuries and hitting parts of the inside of the vehicle.
Explanation

Airbags complement the seat belt: they cushion the head and chest from hitting the steering wheel, the dashboard or the sides, and reduce neck injuries and impacts against the inside of the vehicle. Submarining is prevented by a correctly worn seat belt, not by the airbag.
