The air bag should only go off when the speed is over 13mph and a crash sensor in the front bumper / front area is crushed i.e you hit something and a G loading is over a pre set value
So theres very very little danger of one going off unless you have crashed, and even then hey dont always deploy

Not in a VAG car. The bags go off if the sensors detec a sudden deceleration i.e. one wheel hitting a pot hole will set it off.
