Why do you lean forward with jerk when the driver put the brake suddenly?

When a driver suddenly applies the brakes, the car decelerates rapidly, but your body continues moving forward due to inertia, the tendency of objects to maintain their state of motion. This forward movement happens because your body is not directly attached to the vehicle’s braking system. As a result, you experience a jerk as your body lags behind the car's sudden stop. This phenomenon is a basic principle of physics that explains how forces affect motion.
