Dublin Fire Brigade (DFB) has warned of the dangers of passengers placing their feet on the dashboard of a car during long journeys.
Experts believe that the weight and movement of the feet can trigger the airbag to deploy and this can potentially cause injuries.
DFB shared a video filmed by Hampshire Fire and Rescue Service showing a dummy thrown violently backwards when the airbag detonates in a training car.
