Testing for offsetting behavior and adverse recruitment among drivers of airbag-equipped vehicles / David W. Harless, George E. Hoffer

Earlier studies reported that an insurance industry index of personal-injury claims rose after automobiles adopted driver's side airbags and that drivers of airbag-equipped vehicles were more likely to be at fault in fatal multivehicle accidents . These findings can be explained by the offsetting behaviour hypothesis or by at-risk drivers systematically selecting vehicles with airbags
