This picture is a classic example. Anyone else wonder what would happen on a bus hurdling down the highway if it say suddenly stopped?
Objects in motion tend to stay in motion unless acted upon by another force or object. Like say a windshield.
I try to surpress logic when I ride. Makes me feel a bit better about standing in a tube moving 60 mph.

Use the hand straps as opposed to the windshield. Just a suggestion.
I usually do, if there is one available, but then I worry about the structural integrity of my shoulder. At 60 mph, the force might...never mind, there I go thinking again ;-)
Well, this post makes me want to take public transportation soon. LOL. I try not to think of what happens to objects or people moving at 60mph and coming to an abrupt stop. Not a pretty picture. And unless you're iron man, you should worry about the structural integrity of your shoulder . . .
Maybe the intent is that people are so distracted about where they are going that they don't think. Or perhaps stand towards the back and hope that the person in front of you cushions the impact? And really would a seat be that much safer?
Hey, I can drive in snow! It took me one winter in Missouri to figure it out!
