Solution

Luggage in contact with the roof of the bus. When the bus is moving, luggage is also in the state of motion and had a tendency to remain in motion due to the law of inertia. When the driver applies the brakes, the bus stops suddenly but the luggage is in motion and thus falls from the roof. It is therefore advised to tie the luggage.
