Method for Operating a Pre-Crash Sensing System to Deploy Airbags Using Confidence Factors Prior to Collision

A method of operating a vehicle includes determining a pre-crash collision confidence factor and estimating a time to collision. The method further includes deploying a reversible restraint in response to the confidence factor and the time to collision and deploying a non-reversible restraint in res...
