Yes, the air bag will still deploy even when the seat-belt is not buckled.
There are sensors on a car in the front or bumper of the car to initiate the dashboard airbag, however in newer cars there are now airbags on the windows too protect from hitting the glass, and those are deployed when hit from the side, and anytime a crash may occur on some cars.
Be sure to wear your seat belt and shoulder belt in a vehicle with air bags.
how can i replace the seat belt for an altima 2005, this seat belts was locked because the air bags was activated Thanks
Disconect the electrical connecter on the seatbelt buckle under the seat. Don't disconnect the passenger seat one though as The passenger airbag (if fitted) won't deploy in an accident. The drivers airbag will always deploy.
When there is a sudden high-G deceleration. The passenger bags however will not fire if there is not enough weight on the passenger seat to indicate an adult is in the seat.

to reduce a chance of injury due to air bags you should put your seat belt on. it reduces the risk because you would be held by something. have more precaution when thinking to not put your seat belt on
Not legally, in UK - must have seat and seat belt
Not until the seat belt will fit properly without use of a booster seat.
Yes. Seat belts are your primary restraint, air bags are supplemental restraints.
Faulty air bag actuator is probably the cause, they use an accelerometer to measure rate of deceleration and impact.
