I think you'd be amazed how quickly an RT could (can) stop, for example
pitching a small child in the top front row head first off his seat...

Acceleration is another matter. Gathering speed describes it better.

Any RT's still on the loose in London? One AEC Regent survives in Cardiff,
in private hands, regularly dusted off for vintage transport rallies.
