Perfectly put Pohutu. Trains and coaches and buses do it all the time. Ever travelled on a train in the third world?!

Yes, it is true that an emergency stop during departure or landing is more severe than in a coach BUT trains travel everyday at 150mph / 260kph. If they come off the rails, or have an emergency stop, it can get bad for the pax and they legally have no seat belts at all.
