The physics is F=(m*v)/t
I.e. the greater the velocity the greater the force of impact.
A moving vehicle in real life is a bit more complicated of an equation, factor in the car's angle towards the horizontal as you accelerate or brake, that's the original point, but whatever.
So almost zero difference. Cars do not rock back and forth like a yo-yo when they accelerate or brake.
Now factor in the difference of force between hitting something at 40 and hitting something at 80 or more.
You and that other person trying to argue this are probably the dumbest people I've ever seen on this site.
