SYSTEM FOR ACTIVATING SAFETY MEASURES IN A MOTOR VEHICLE AND VEHICLE

A system for activating safety measures in a motor vehicle with two acceleration sensors connected to a controller module configured to activate a vehicle security system upon detection of signals. A first sensor is arranged at a first vehicle front-end portion element and a second sensor is arranged at a second vehicle front-end portion element. A rigidity of the first vehicle front-end portion element is greater than a rigidity of the second vehicle front-end portion element. The controller determines whether there is a mutual approximation or a mutual separation of the first sensor and the second sensor.
