That is my understanding of how it works. I wouldn't be doing experiments.


In chart below...see highlighted text that explains how the MRS/SRS system will deploy as if seat is occupied and seat belted is unbuckled when the system has faults registered.

In other words (or words similar to what you wrote)...the system defaults to the side of caution.
