A method for controlling an actuatable safety device for protecting an occupant of a vehicle includes utilizing an advanced driver assistance system (ADAS) to determine that a vehicle collision is impending. In response to determining the existence of an impending vehicle collision, a mass spring damper model uses sensed vehicle longitudinal acceleration (IMU_X) to estimate the occupant movement that will result from the impending vehicle collision. The estimated occupant movement is used to determine how to control deployment of an actuatable safety device in response to the crash.
