    So for the best outcome in an accident. One needs to experience the least amount of force and force is equal to mass times acceleration. I think it’s pretty safe to assume that mass is a fixed number in this case so we need to change the speed of acceleration to reduce force. So the further you are away from the point of impact the more time the impact occurs over reducing the force experienced.

    So basically figured out where the bus more likely to be hit and then sit as far away from that as possible. I think we would find that the back of the bus statistically would be the safest place to sit. As front end collisions are probably going to be at the highest rate of speed and rearing conditions are probably going to be at the lowest rate of speed.

    Alternatively you could just try bubble wrap.

      to be specific here. What is the heatmap probability of any particular spot being hit, and what is the heatmap of least likely to be impacted spots, overlayed on top of the heatmap, to account for any weird anomalies in data present.

      But yes, bubble wrap is a very good answer.
