A passive restraint 20 includes inflatable members 22 inflatable to an inflated position. The inflatable members are elongated along a longitudinal axis A and spaced from each other in a lateral direction L in the inflated position. The passive restraint includes uninflatable panels 24 arranged in an alternating arrangement with the inflatable members. Each panel is elongated in the lateral direction when the inflatable members are inflated and extends from one of the inflatable members to another one of the inflatable members. When placed in a vehicle 26 with seats 32 spaced from each other, the inflatable members inflate to a position disposed between the seats. The inflatable members may be supported by the roof 30 or the floor 28 of the vehicle. When inflated they may define a curtain extending from the front to the rear of the vehicle. The cross section of the inflatable member may be circular.
