The equipment installed into a vehicle to lessen the likelihood and severity of traffic collisions is referred to as an automotive safety system. The vehicle safety system is a critical component in the automobile manufacturing industry. Safety systems are employed in the automotive industry to ensure the safeness and security of automobiles and passengers. 

Seatbelts, airbags, antilock braking systems, electronic traction, stability control systems, lane departure warning, blind-spot recognition, and driver monitoring are all utilized to ensure the safety of passengers. Vehicle demand is being driven by rising population, per capita income, and favorable foreign direct investment. With increased vehicle demand, demand for higher road safety regulations rises, boosting the automotive safety system market expansion soon.

However, the global market for car safety systems has been poorly disrupted by the COVID-19 pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic slowed economic growth in nearly all major countries, altering consumer purchasing patterns.

National and international travel have been hampered due to the lockdown applied in many nations, which has dramatically disrupted the supply chain of numerous sectors worldwide, consequently increasing the supply-demand gap. As a result, a lack of raw material supply is likely to slow the manufacturing rate of automobile safety systems, severely impacting the automotive safety system market growth.
