The transport vehicle seat makes it possible to avoid the violent impact of the head of a passenger located on the seat positioned behind and to dampen the violent rocking forward of this passenger in the event of a frontal impact of the transport vehicle. The seat has a pivot-mounted fold-down element (10), such as a tray, positioned on the rear face of a backrest. It has stop means (14) that keep the fold-down element (10) in a substantially vertical position, these stop means (14) being able to give during an impact applied to the fold-down element (10) and to allow the latter to continue swinging in the direction of the backrest to which it is fixed. The stop means has, relative to the substantially vertical position, increasing-resistance means that are able to keep the fold-down element (10) in the substantially vertical position, in the absence of said impact, and are able to allow the continuation of pivoting of the fold-down element under the effect of an impact.
