Best Answer

Air bags prevent concussions - and broken bones - and serious trauma of many kinds. For a normal-sized adult, in proper sitting position in an automobile seat, I seriously doubt an airbag would be capable of causing a concussion in and of itself. It's fabric is too soft, and it deflates a split second after it inflates.
