Answer:

It is better to sit inside the bus because have rubber tires which insulate you from the ground.

Trees are often the tallest objects within an environment. Therefore, trees make great targets for lighting. However, trees do not contain as many ions as humans do. Thus, humans are better conductors than trees. If the tip of a tree is struck by lighting and a person is standing under the tree hits the lightning which sometimes lead to death.
