If you're driving your CyberTruck™ 100mph with the windows up, and there's a fly flying around inside your CyberTruck™, and then you crash into a concrete wall head-on, what happens to the fly?
Hard to troubleshoot what you don't understand about compression and air.
You know those "drop zone" towers? The reason they slow down is because the air column under the platform compresses and acts like a cushion. Same concept will happen with a fly or fleck of dust in the air of a car. Wham! The pocket of air is travelling at 100 mph, smashes against the front, momentarily compresses to a degree that can cushion suspended dust from hitting the front, but not a 150 lbs human. A fly is somewhere in that range, somewhere closer to dust. Will it be cushioned? Or will blast through the compression wave? Just like "drop zone" there is a balance in the equation that determines whether the air cushion is sufficient.

Not dizzying! Wrong ride!
