The severity of head and neck, chest, abdomen and extremity were significantly lower in belted patients than un-belted patients. The severity of head and neck, face were significantly lower in airbag-deployed patients than un-deployed patients with seatbelt use. On the other hand, the severity of chest and abdomen were significantly higher in airbag-deployed patients than un-deployed patients in unbelted patients, which must be alerted to all car users.
