The airbag light should come on for a few secounds after car is started but should go out as the car does a self check of the restraint system every time you turn the key to ignition.
It sounds like the car logs a fault and after you start to drive it corrects its self. Possible steering wheel squib which connects drivers airbag to wireing harness.(behind steering wheel).
The only other thing it could be is the wiring to the seatbelt pre-tensioners on the drivers seat.
