inertia of motion is answer
When a running car stops suddenly the passenger tends to lean forward because of Inertia of Motion. When the bus is running, the whole body of the passenger is in the state of motion. When the bus stops suddenly, the lower part of the passengers body which is in contact with the bus, comes to rest.
