"textContent": "An inflatable pedestrian airbag for a motor vehicle is provided, the airbag being formed of flexible material such as fabric and defining an inflatable chamber for the receipt of inflating gas. The airbag is configured for deflation after deployment to thereby permit temporary repacking of the airbag to permit the driver of the vehicle to continue to drive the vehicle safely. The airbag has a vent aperture provided with a closure arrangement, the closure arrangement having an initial closed configuration effective to substantially close the vent aperture and an alternate open configuration effective to open the vent aperture. The closure arrangement is configured to remain in said closed configuration during inflation and substantially complete deployment of the airbag but to be selectively manipulable thereafter so as to adopt said open configuration and thereby permit deflation of the airbag. In preferred embodiments, the closure arrangement takes the form or a flap or patch which can be manually torn off the outside of the airbag.",
