Always remember that the former President was dumber than the dumbest person you've ever met by a wide margin

 Your wife is correct, you still have the forward motion of the car applied to your body.

Also, do you often think about falling out of the car while your baby cries and your wife is in the front seat? Perhaps the real physics problem here should be "why am I dangerously depressed and suicidal?".

What if the car is then going 10 mph and I jump 80? I think you're starting to learn via my socratic method :)

You know what, how about trying this tonight at home? Start your car rolling at about 45 mph. Put it into cruise control and jump out the back at EXACTLY 45 mph. Guess what will happen then!
