Holycity:



he was saying what if you jumped out and something bad happen to you

BitmapStudios:

No ooo I juss see you for FP kon say, ah na this oga be this o.

Holycity:
this morning I took a keke from my street, at the end of the street there is something like a little hill before you enter the high way, and as the keke was climbing this hill at a point, the brake fail the driver try all he could, nothing seems to work and the keke was coming down to no direction, went I saw a chance for me to get out I did, although I fell because of the speed it was using to come down bt I was not wounded, the keke stop only after hitting someone building. after the whole thing a man came and warn me, that should not always jump out of a vehicle during accidents, that I should always stay inside the car... I was like will I see dead coming and still wait for it...

my question now is: is it safe to jump out of a vehicle during accidents?

KingAzubuike:

So they should stay inside the vehicle and die instead is what you're saying?

SaturnNick:
Have you had a gun pointed to your head?

Chiachifranklin:
No most times u discover that d disadvantages associated with jumping out n actually staying has ever been dangerous. But if one's spirit is convinced of jumping in out, is @one's discretion

Reference:


Generally. No. The reason is simple physics. You transfer momentum from the vehicle to your body. You are still moving at the same velocity as the vehicle at the point of departure so you are likely to contact whatever you are seeking to avoid with the same energy dissipating albeit over a smaller mass which is you. No matter how bad a crash is. The vehicle is bound to absorb the bulk of the contact/collision energy. Which means if a person is killed inside a vehicular crash, it would be a certainty if the person elects to bail out.

However if the vehicle looses much of its velocity and a person observes greater danger coming such as an on coming vehicle, or a cliff edge then such idea may be reasonable.

PotatoSalad:
Yup, armed robbers

cuteluks:
It depends, you should only jump out when the path is clear

Yes, it is safe. You will not know this until you try it.
