Headrest
The driver's and front passenger's seats

the event of a collision.

same height of the center of gravity of an
occupant's head. Generally, the center of
gravity of most people's head is similar

head as possible. For this reason, the use of a cushion that
holds the body away from the seatback is
not recommended.
