   OK, no forces acting so that will work!

   But you clearly stated just one sentence ago that *the bus   
   is making* a very sharp turn! So the bus (its chairs and   
   its walls) are turning against the child. The child is not   
   falling against those objects.

   Because the bus made this sharp turn and its walls suddenly   
   moved towards the child, you mean? OK, we now established   
   that. All very clear now, I think..
