An air-bag (8) is mounted in the roof of a motor vehicle to be deployed in front of an occupant (7) of the vehicle. The air-bag is constrained by tear straps (15) within the air-bag to inflate initially as a “curtain” in front of the occupant of the vehicle, that curtain only having a relatively narrow thickness (t). When the tear-straps break, the bag has a more rounded configuration. The bas is releasably retained within a recess (9) which initially houses the bag. When the bag is fully inflated, the bag becomes totally separated from the recess, to prevent the bag forcing the head of the occupant rearwardly as the torso of the occupant moves forwardly during an accident.

A multi-destination transmission method for transmitting a short message from an originating mobile terminal to a plurality of terminating mobile terminals, comprising the steps of: (a) transmitting a request for the multi-transmission of the short message from the user of the originating mobile terminal; (b) if the request for the multi-transmission is detected, inputting, by the user, a group number corresponding to one of the previously recorded groups having a plurality of telephone numbers corresponding to the plurality of terminating mobile terminals; and, reading out the telephone numbers registered in one of the selected groups that correspond to the inputted group number; and, (c) sequentially transmitting the short message using a short message service (SMS) to the retrieved telephone numbers corresponding to the terminating mobile terminals. 4. The method as recited in claim 3, wherein the step (b) of retrieving the telephone numbers of the terminating mobile terminals comprises the steps of: selecting, by the user, one of the previously registered groups having a plurality of telephone numbers corresponding to the plurality of terminating mobile terminals; and, reading out the telephone numbers registered in one of the selected groups. 5. The method as recited in claim 3, further comprising the steps of: if the request for the multi-transmission group is not selected, sequentially inputting a plurality of new telephone numbers corresponding to the plurality of terminating mobile terminals to which the short message is to be multi-transmitted. 6. The method as recited in claim 3, further comprising the steps of: upon the completion of the short message transmission, detecting if the short message transmission to one of the retrieved telephone numbers is unsuccessful; notifying the user of the originating mobile terminal if a transmission failure to one of the telephone numbers registered in the selected group is detected; determining whether to re-transmit the short message to the transmission-failed telephone number; and, re-transmitting the short message to the transmission-failed telephone number if the user requests the re-transmission. 7. The method as recited in claim 6, further comprising the step of notifying the completion of the transmission to the user of the originating mobile terminal if there is no transmission failure to one of the telephone numbers registered in the selected group. 8. The method as recited in claim 6, wherein the step of notifying the transmission failure to the originating mobile terminal comprises the steps of: generating an alarm signal for indicating the transmission failure; and, displaying the transmission-failed telephone number after the generation of the alarm signal. 9. A multi-destination transmission method for transmitting a short message from an originating mobile terminal to a plurality of terminating mobile terminals, comprising the steps of: (1) pre-registering a plurality of telephone numbers corresponding to a plurality of terminating mobile terminals in different groups in a memory means of th e originating mobile terminal; (2) inputting and editing at least one short message in the originating mobile terminal; (3) detecting a request for the multi-transmission of the inputted short message from the user of the originating mobile terminal; (4) upon receiving the request for the multi-transmission, requesting the user to select whether to multi-transmit the short message to one of the pre-registered groups having the pre-registered telephone numbers; (5)(a) if the multi-transmission to one of the pre-registered groups is selected, retrieving the telephone numbers registered in the selected group; and, (5)(a)(i) multi-transmitting the short message to the retrieved telephone numbers; (5)(b) if the multi-transmission to one of the pre-registered groups is not selected, inputting a plurality of new telephone numbers in the originating mobile terminal; and, (5)(b)(i) multi-transmitting the short message to the new telephone numbers in sequence upon the completion of inputting the new telephone numbers. 10. The method as recited in claim 9, wherein the step (5)(a)(i) of multi-transmitting the short message comprises the steps of: sequentially transmitting the short message to each one of the telephone numbers registered in the selected group; upon completion of the short message, determining if the transmission of the short message to one of the telephone numbers registered in the selected group is completed without failure; notifying the user of the originating mobile terminal if a transmission failure to one of the telephone numbers registered in the selected group is detected; and, determining whether to re-transmit the short message to the transmission-failed telephone number. 11. The method as recited in claim 10, wherein the step of notifying the transmission failure to the originating mobile terminal comprises the steps of: generating an alarm signal for indicating the transmission failure; and, displaying the transmission-failed telephone number after the generation of the alarm signal. 12. The method as recited in claim 9, further comprising the step of re-transmitting the short message to the transmission-failed telephone number if the user requests the re-transmission. 13. The method as recited in claim 9, wherein the step(5)(b)(i) of multi-transmitting the short message comprises the steps of: sequentially transmitting the short message to each one of the new telephone numbers registered; upon the completion of the short message transmission, determining if the short message transmission to one of the new telephone numbers is a failure; notifying the user of the originating mobile terminal if a transmission failure to one of the new telephone numbers registered is detected; and, determining whether to re-transmit the short message to the transmission-failed telephone number. 14. The method as recited in claim 13, wherein the step of notifying the transmission failure to the originating mobile terminal comprises the steps of: generating an alarm signal for indicating the transmission failure; and, displaying the transmission-failed telephone number after the generation of the alarm signal. 15. The method as recited in claim 13, further comprising the step of re-transmitting the short message to the transmission-failed telephone number if the user requests the re-transmission.
