Today I was on a City bus.

And Newton's first Law hit me hard.

I was standing. And the bus stopped suddenly. I fell down. Because of Newton's Law of Inertia, which states:

"An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force."

For example, when the bus started to move my body has the tendency to move so when the bus stopped I swayed forward and fell down.

I want to know without holding the steel bars in the bus is it possible to cancel out this extra force $F_{net} = 0$? I know you can use friction. But then the bus is moving and the bus is moving you. You have no way to walk inside the bus with the industrial boot that has the ultimate friction on the bus floor because you don't know the time and place when and where the bus would stop.
