Abstract: A safety system for a motor bike includes an evaluation and control unit which receives crash-relevant information from at least one sensor unit and evaluates it for the purpose of detecting a crash, and in response to a detected crash, the evaluation and control unit activates at least one external safety component and/or at least one internal safety component using a triggering concept. The evaluation and control unit receives presence signals from the at least one external safety component and/or the at least one internal safety component and evaluates the received signals in order to detect the safety components currently available. The evaluation and control unit selects the triggering concept as a function of the detected safety components currently available.

Abstract: In a method for activating a personal protection device for a motorcycle, which personal protection device has at least one airbag that is capable of being deployed in a region facing away from a driver of the motorcycle, in front of a front fork and/or in front of a front windshield and/or in front of a front headlight of the motorcycle, a collision signal is read in that represents a collision or an impending collision of the motorcycle, and subsequently an activation signal is provided, using the collision signal, in order to activate the personal protection device and deploy the at least one airbag.

Abstract: A method is described for controlling an occupant protection arrangement which has at least two levels of protection for an occupant of a vehicle. The method has a step of selecting one of the at least two levels of protection of the occupant protection means as the level of protection to be used in the event of an impact of the vehicle using a yaw direction of the vehicle.

Abstract: A restraining device, for a rider of a vehicle, includes a restraining belt that is integratable or is integrated at least partly into a garment of the rider, the restraining belt being configured so as to encompass at least one bodily region of the rider, and includes a connecting element that is connectable or is connected to the restraining belt, the connecting element being configured to bind the rider detachably to the vehicle.
