i guess technically that is correct, over the front section of the bonnet there may be lower pressure, but the rear of the bonnet will be higher than this..
it's hard to find many good pics to illustrate this but

and the animation at..

the green area at the back of the bonnet, base of windscreen is green = higher pressure..

Quote: | Pressure on top of the bonnet? Why would there be any? The pressure on the surface of the bodywork depends on the aerodynamic flows over it. This DaimlerChrysler graphic shows the typical frontal pressure distribution of a car. Looking just at the bonnet you can see that there is low pressure (blue) where the air wraps around the leading edge of the bonnet, grading to high pressure (green) as the air reaches the obstruction which is the windscreen.
So you wouldn’t site a bonnet outlet vent close to the windscreen – in fact that’s usually where the cabin ventilation inlet ducts are... they’re taking advantage of that high pressure! Looking at just the exterior pressures, what we want at the vent location is the very lowest external pressure.
