Why should a front passenger keep their feet off the dashboard?

551. Why should a front passenger keep their feet off the dashboard?

It can prevent the passenger airbag from deploying.
It can make the front seat slide forwards during braking.
✓ It can greatly increase the risk of injury if the airbag deploys.
It can prevent the engine from cooling properly.

A front airbag deploys very quickly and with considerable force. If a passenger has their feet or legs on the dashboard, airbag deployment can force their legs backwards and greatly increase the risk of serious injury. Passengers should sit normally with their feet in the footwell and wear their seat belts correctly. The driver should make sure everyone is seated and restrained safely before setting off.
