5-seater cars

For 5-seater cars, the safest seats are the rear seats behind the driver's seat and the middle seat because these parts of the car are least likely to deform in a frontal collision.

The most dangerous seats are the seats next to the driver's seat because in an accident, the driver often tries to steer and the person sitting next to him or her is most at risk. The person sitting in the front also has a greater inertia force, so it is easy for their head and chest to hit the dashboard if the seat belt and airbag are not working effectively. A broken front windshield can also be dangerous.

7-seater cars

For 7-seater cars, the safest position is the middle seat, behind the driver's seat. When moving, if a collision occurs, the rear seats will bear less impact force than the front seats.

Minibuses, small passenger cars (9-16 seats)

The safest seats on these vehicles are the seats behind the driver's seat. In the event of a collision, this position will be less affected, especially if there is a seat facing the opposite direction of travel, this is the safest position. Sitting in a seat facing the opposite direction of travel will be less affected by the inertial force when the vehicle collides.

The most dangerous position is the seat next to the door because glass and broken glass can easily injure you.

Large passenger cars, buses

The safest positions are the seats in the middle of the vehicle.

The most dangerous seats are the first two rows of seats because when colliding, foreign objects and broken glass can shoot at people. The same possibility also applies to seats near the door. The last row of seats is dangerous in case the vehicle is hit from behind.

Train

The safest place is near the center of the train car. Cars 5-6 are usually the safest cars because they are located in the center of the train. In a collision, the first and last cars are usually the first to derail.

Ships

The safest places are the decks and cabins located in the upper part of the train because this is the last part to sink in a collision.

The lower part of the train is usually the first to sink and is difficult to escape.

Airplanes

There are many opinions about the safest seats on an airplane. However, a common and widely agreed opinion is that sitting in the back of the plane is safer than the front rows.
