How much space between drivers chest and steering wheel with airbag?

The length of the persons forearm. All drivers need to be properly belted and sit as far from the air bag as possible to allow the air bag to deploy. Short drivers should move the driver's seat rearward to allow space between the driver's chest and the steering wheel, and the seat back should be tilted back slightly. There is no precise distance known that will guarantee that no injuries will occur because all air bags are unique and deploy with different forces. However, the driver should refrain from leaning forward and, to the extent possible, the driver should hold the steering wheel from the side so that his/her arms aren't between the driver and the air bag. The farther away from the air bag the better.

There is no set distance ! It depends on the physical form of the driver - as to the position of the seat, creating a comfortable driving position. Air bags are large enough to almost fill the space the driver occupies.
