A seat for supporting a passenger in a vehicle includes a seat base having first and second sections. The first and second sections are coupled to the vehicle such that, upon a sudden acceleration of the vehicle, at least a portion of the acceleration being directed from forward to rearward relative to the orientation of the passenger, the first section of the seat base moves away from a rest position and the second section moves away from a rest position along a second predetermined path, so that as the first and second sections move away from their respective rest positions, the distance between a point on the first section and a point on the second section changes and at least a portion of the second section is raised relative to a portion of the first section.
