When a car is moving, this creates a difference in the relative velocity of the car as compared to the surrounding air. This creates a wind that presses on the windscreen. It doesn't actually matter, in terms of the amount of pressure, whether the car is not moving and the air is moving, or the car is moving and the air is not moving, what matters is only the difference in velocity between the car and the air.

How can air pressure affect the window glass of an airplane?

Other than the force of the air on the windscreen as the aircraft moves forward through the air (a function of speed and air density), the primary affect of air pressure on window glass in an aircraft is from the force of cabin air pressure pushing out against the window. This force can be in the neighborhood of 8 pounds per square inch in the average commercial aircraft. Because of this rather significant force, windows in pressurized aircraft generally are small and sturdily built.

Air pressure is affected by temperature.?

Yes, air pressure is affected by temperature.When the temperature is higher the air pressure lowers and the weight of the air is lower. When air is warmer the molecules sperate and there are less molecules that can cause pressure.
