If you wear your seatbelt, and as a participant in this board one would hope that you do, there's no good reason to remove the air bag(s). The belt does most of the work, the bag is just an adjunct to the safety system, like icing on the cake. If you are unbelted, that's another scenario entirely, whereupon impact you are thrown into the bag, and it does the "saving", but not nearly as well as the belt. Seat yourself a reasonable distance from the wheel, use the telescoping feature to move it away from you for a comfortable "arms out" position. Let the engineering you've paid for do its job.
