Abstract
A protection device () has a sensor () to sense an impact of a road user outside a motor vehicle. A control device () is connected to the sensor () and evaluates signals sensed by the sensor (). A rear actuator () is connected to the control device () and to a hinge arrangement () of a front hood () of the vehicle. The rear actuator () transfers a rear part of the front hood () into an impact position for damping an impact sensed by the sensor (). A front actuator () is connected to the control device () and to a hood lock () in a front region of the front hood (). The front actuator () transfers a front region of the front hood () into an impact position for damping the impact. The control device () activates the two actuators () in a time-delayed manner.
