airbag test

Okay, so you already graded the answers; but the "deployment" is REALLY superfluous...

If you google for the two expressions, there are 158 compared with 11,100 - and how else would you suggest an airbag could be tested, other than by "triggering" it (and that is hardly "deployment", after all)? In any case, "deployment" is a decidedly odd word to use in this context.
Peer comment(s):

neutral Inga Jakobi : I think there is a big difference between testing the triggering (auslösen auf Deutsch) and the process of deployment which is very important to evaluate possible injuries caused

I'm inclined to see thia as the difference in understanding of the term by an ENS and a GNS.
