What does AIRBAG mean in Scrabble?
noun
A cushion in a vehicle that inflates in a crash to protect the people inside from hitting hard surfaces.
Sensors detect a sudden stop, and a chemical reaction fills the bag with gas within a few hundredths of a second. It deflates almost at once, so it works as a brief cushion for the head and chest. Airbags are meant to work together with seat belts, not replace them, and modern cars carry them in the steering wheel, dashboard, doors and seats.
