| It has to do with the air mass inside the car. If you're in it, you move at normal speed. If driving fast in a convertible, the wind passing through the cabin would make it more difficult for the fly to buzz around at normal speeds. If the fly flew up a foot, he would get blown away - because it would no longer be in a still air mass. |

You guys are so lame. You see, when you drive you're not driving ON the earth, it's moving UNDER you...you stay completely still. Therefore any and all persons or objects in the car are stationary while the earth moves under you. Duh. |
No wonder I'm always late to work & other places!  |

Clearly your car isn't strong enough to push the Earth faster under your car. |
