  1. Depends on the car. If it only has front impact airbags then the sensor is in the front of the car and will only go off when the fron end it hit.

    There are some newer cars, trucks etc that have side impact airbags of well, I have heard stories of these deploying when rear ended, but that depends on how hard the impact is.


  2. the air bag are deployed by an impact sensor. sometimes cars will have multiple sensors. if any sensor sees an impact it will deploy the airbags.

  3. No.

  4. yes

  5. No cause the impact is in the rear not the front.
