Plates in motion will remain in motion unless acted upon by some other force. Plate tectonics is a lot more complicated than bodies in motion, you are dealing with a molten planet core and convection currents and a spinning earth, all of which are not subject to definitive calculations.

How can i relate the crumple zone to the newton's law of motion?

It increases the time taken for the force from the impact to be distributed to the passengers so the overall force is decreased. It relates to newtons first law about the acceleration of objects.


Why don't aftershocks happen in the same place?

Its called venting of the imbalanced aspects. After shocks do happen at the same place for a given period till all the kinetic energy is released and the tectonic plates realign themselves at their original place by the law of thermodynamics and law of balance of energy. The earthquakes are earth's response to the movement of the tectonic plates, so till the time they are restored, they happen.
