"textContent": "There is proposed a pedestrian airbag arrangement on a motor vehicle having a windscreen. The arrangement has an airbag (1) defining an inflatable volume for the receipt of inflating gas, the inflatable volume having a primary chamber (5) configured for inflation upon deployment of the airbag so as to extend over or across at least part of the windscreen (19); and a plurality of secondary chambers (14. Each secondary chamber (14) is configured for inflation upon deployment of the airbag (1) so as to adopt a respective deployed position between the primary chamber (5) and the windscreen (19) to thereby space the primary chamber (5) from the windscreen. The arrangement is characterised in that at least one of said secondary chambers (14) is of a type configured to inflate to a predetermined maximum thickness (t) measured across the chamber and has a structure defining a region (18) of the chamber which is restricted from inflating to said maximum thickness (t) to thereby provide a localised narrowing of the chamber (14) about which the chamber is configured to fold and/or buckle upon impact of a pedestrian (21) against the primary chamber (5).",
