They'll slam into the seats and still be safer.
- freeflight 5y agoYouTube has plenty of videos showing the insides of school buses during crashes, anything that ain't a frontal crash has kids sliding and flying all over the place. They slide sideways out of the seats trough any serious horizontal forces, in the case of a rollover their heads will violently hit the roof as they literally take off from the seats [0], and then fall on the people on the ground side.

- MathCodeLove 5y agoYouTube also has plenty of videos of plane crashes, that doesn't mean that passenger aircraft are inherently unsafe, but that there are always risks associated with transportation and given extraordinary enough circumstances those risks will be revealed.
- freeflight 5y agoThe point here is not "school buses are inherently unsafe", the point is that they seem to lack a basic safety feature that's otherwise common, even in passenger aircraft, that of seatbelts.
