When you step on the gas pedal, it injects more fuel into the car engine, causing the piston to move faster. The faster the piston moves, the faster the wheels will turn.
The car's acceleration is in forward direction.
When a driver applies the brakes quickly, inertia causes the book to continue moving forward momentarily before friction and the force of deceleration from the car's brakes eventually bring it to a stop. The sudden stoppage of the car transfers inertia to the book, causing it to move forward until external forces act upon it.
In the context of operating a motor vehicle, a power skid is what results when a driver presses down too hard and suddenly on the accelerator. A simple skid is when someone losses control over the direction in which their car is moving.
The passengers fall forward when the driver applies brakes suddenly because of inertia. Inertia is the tendency of an object to resist changes in its state of motion. When the bus abruptly decelerates, the passengers continue moving forward due to their inertia, causing them to fall forward.

It applies to both moving and non-moving objects.
You ease off on the accelerator and move the gear lever.
When a driver applies the brakes, the vehicle experiences deceleration due to the friction between the brake pads and the brake rotors. This rapid slowing down shifts the weight of the vehicle forward, causing any unsecured objects or passengers to slide in the same direction. Additionally, the inertia of these objects causes them to continue moving forward until they are stopped by a seatbelt or other restraint.
isometric contraction
When you press the accelerator and brake together in a motor car, the engine will rev, but the brake will stop it from moving. Doing this repeatedly can cause the vehicle damage.
Static friction applies when an object is stationary or not moving. It prevents the object from sliding or moving when a force is applied to it. Static friction helps to maintain balance and stability for objects in rest.
An example of acceleration in the direction of motion is when a car speeds up while driving on a highway. As the driver presses on the accelerator pedal, the car's velocity increases in the same direction as its motion, resulting in acceleration in the direction of travel.
