60 miles per hour = = AMP Parsing Error of [88 (ft)/(sec) ]: Invalid function ')': opening bracket expected at /home/ichudov/project_locations/algebra.com/templates/Algebra/Expression.pm line 70. .


Therefore the car will move 88 ft in the 1 second that the driver is recovering from the alcohol!! PLUS other side effects of the alcohol that cause delays in thinking and poor judgment! DON'T DRINK (even a little bit!) and DRIVE!!!
