or anything else are put inside the vehicle, they
will go as fast as the vehicle goes. If you have to
stop or turn quickly, or if there is a crash, they will
keep going.

and injure people in a sudden stop or turn,
or in a crash.

far forward as you can. Try to spread the
weight evenly.

suitcases, inside the vehicle so that
some of them are above the tops of the
seats.
