Why do you seem to "fly forward" when you slam on the brakes of a car? what forces are involved?

Its because of inertia.
due to inertia u tries to be in the same state of motion, in this case u have a tendency to remain in forward motion as the car suddenly tries to stop, so u move forward.
all the best
