I’m currently on a very crowded bus with many people standing up, even though we are on highways. Why can I stand unsecured while on the bus? Is it a matter of being able to safely get people out in an emergency? Thanks!
edit: I’m in Canada 🇨🇦

Many buses in the inner city both travel at low speeds and stop very frequently. Having to buckle/unbuckle a seat belt will take a lot of time. So there it‘s a trade off between speed, convenience, and security, but usually it’s not problematic thanks to slow speeds inside the city.
As soon as a bus enters a free way or any road where it has to go faster, this automatically means that it will not stop as frequently and that the speed is higher, making seat belts a very good option and usually required.
