    From experience: it is not the braking force that is measured, but the braking distance to determine the speed of the vehicle. My mother ~ 86 years old. she was injured by one bus driver when he braked suddenly and she fell on the floor of the bus on her butt, after a week the place of the fall festered, in order to remove the pus, 3 incisions were needed, it was necessary to hear her screams. No one was even looking for the driver, but as I understood, he braked and jerked so much throughout the ride that all the passengers swayed like trees in the wind. Recently, there has been an increase in the number of such mental people taking the bus, you don't know why, but I remember exactly that there were not even such people in the times of socialism. Riding the bus used to be a pleasure, but now I don't know what the capitalists are doing with those drivers, that they transport people like animals.

    The VT driver should not brake suddenly so as not to injure the passengers? And later, some inadequately hit pedestrian who ran into the road instead of the right place or the driver who caused an emergency situation will drag the VT driver to court because the latter braked too weak. How is that braking strength measured? By the length of the brake tire marks on the asphalt ?Should the braking force be such that relaxed passengers do not lose their balance while holding their phones? After all, drivers everywhere are required to accelerate or brake evenly, so passengers get used to such "baby rocking" and can afford not to hold on at all!
