There is no answer because its a metaphorical question/phrase. So, is it better to be the bug or the windshield? I say its better to be the windshield, because you have have windshield wipers to wipe the guts off of the windshield...


How are the size an direction of action- reaction forces related?

According to Newton's Third Law, every action has an equal and opposite reaction. So, action-reaction forces are equal in magnitude (size) and opposite in direction. For example, a bug hits the windshield of a car. The force of the car on the bug is equal to the force of the bug on the car. The accelerations of the two are obviously different, because acceleration depends on mass. Unintuivie, but true.


A small car like a Honda Civic is in a head-on collision with a Hummer Using Newtons Laws explain why the passengers in the small car are more likely to be injured than those in the Hummer?

In a collision both objects experience the exact same forces. The difference is the force threshold of each object. A hummer has a greater force threshold than a small car. The same idea is present when a bug hits a windshield. The bug hits the car with the same amount of force as the car hits the bug, but the bug has a much lower force threshold which is why it gets crushed.
