What is a word meaning drive forward?

Drive forward can be taken in several different connotations. 1) Drive forward: to move a vehicle in the forward direction relative to the front of the vehicle. 'You should drive forward rather than take the turn here'. In this instance using drive, accelerate, advance, or proceed would be acceptable. 2) Drive forward: to push forward militarily, an army's push into enemy territory. 'Drive forward! Press the attack!' In this instance, push, attack, advance, storm, assault, strike. 3) Drive forward: motivation to proceed with a goal or activity, such as the drive for technological, societial, etc. progression. 'We must "drive forward" into the future.' In this instance, advance, proceed, continue, promote.

You are walking toward the back of a bus that is moving forward with a constant velocity. Describe your motion relative to the bus and relative to a point on the ground?

Relative to the bus, you are moving towards the back. If your walking speed is slower than the speed of the moving bus (which it usually will be) then your motion relative to a point on the ground will be moving in the direction of the moving bus, but slower by the speed at which you are walking.
