Questions and Answers
About Airbags and
Specialty Law
Enforcement Vehicles
Q: Can equipment such as radar
devices, video cameras, and
radio trees be mounted in a
specialty vehicle equipped
with a right front passenger
frontal airbag?
A: Yes, but care must be taken to
properly mount the equipment
outside of the airbag
“ deployment zone. ”
Q: What is the airbag
“ deployment zone ” ?
A: The term “ deployment zone ”
describes the space an airbag
takes up when fully inflated.
Airbags need room to work
properly, and anything in the
“ deployment zone ” — such
as improperly mounted
equipment
— can greatly affect
the performance of the airbag.

WARNING
Airbags inflate with great force,
faster than the blink of an eye.
No objects, such as shotguns,
should be placed over or near
the airbag covers. Equipment

WARNING (Continued)
mounted too close to an inflating
airbag could break and become a
dangerous projectile in a crash,
causing injury to the vehicle's
occupants. Also, an object too
close to an inflating airbag could
prevent the airbag from operating
properly. If this ever happens,
the airbag would not be able to
protect occupants the way it was
designed to. To help prevent
injury and to allow the airbag to
perform as it was designed, do
not mount equipment inside the
airbag deployment zone.
