device 20 so that at the time of impact between the vehicle 2 and pedestrian 3 the bar 20 e makes contact with the pedestrian 39 s lower body 3 after contact has been made between the bar 20 e and pedestrian 3 the pedestrian 39 s body 3 is flung against the impact dampening mesh 20 a see fig8 unlike the preferred embodiment shown in fig1 through 5 in the second embodiment the present invention 39 s device is not activated only at the time of impact as such the device 20 remains activated while the vehicle is moving unless intentionally deactivated fig8 shows a deactivated device 20 as can be seen when deactivated the device 20 can be placed in a retracted position with the inflatable bags not inflated fig9 12 show other alternative embodiment of the present invention 39 s device in this embodiment the safety device 30 consists of a main impact dampening area three secondary resistance and support areas 30 b 30 c and 30 d and one support area 30 e the main impact dampening area 30 a consists of an inflatable bag whose pressure is less than that of the secondary areas 30 b 30 d and support area 30 e the first secondary region 30 b is an inflatable bag that when inflated is parallel to the vehicle 39 s front end and the second and third secondary regions 30 c and 30 d consist of inflatable side bags 30 c and 30 d that stick out from the first secondary region 30 b the inflatable side bags 30 c and 30 d shall preferably be placed at an inclined angle in relation to a plane that runs parallel to the rails this inclination which may be about 6 u00b0.
