Why this is the answer
The correct answer in the official bank: It is a system designed to reduce passenger impact, through the inflation of airbags during collision.
Airbags exist to protect the people inside the vehicle: in a collision they inflate within a fraction of a second and cushion the body against the steering wheel, dashboard or doors. SRS means a supplemental restraint system, so it works together with the seat belt and does not replace it. It has nothing to do with stability in turns or cooling the brakes.
