ABSTRACT:
If a control device determines that a collision during a vehicle run has been detected on the basis of a combination of an output signal of a sensor and a vehicle speed signal, an inflator is actuated so as to inflate and deploy an air bag body disposed in an apron upper member. When inflated and deployed, the air bag body raises a longitudinal-direction central portion of a hood. At this time, the longitudinal-direction central portion of the hood bends with a depression serving as an origin of bending.
