You are a passenger in a car and you are wearing a seatbelt. The driver comes to a very sudden, lurching stop, and they swing their arm out against your chest in a protective act.

I've viscerally hated it every time someone did this to me and wonder whether I'm just odd. It turns a small event into something that feels momentarily traumatizing. My brain usually split-second processes the gesture as assault. I understand people do this on instinct with good intentions but I wish they wouldn't and it seems unnecessary. How does everyone else feel?
