Question 1118601: car 1 quickly accelerates to aprox 75mph, stays there then slows down to a stop at 3.5 miles down an empty two lane road at night.
2nd car accelerates after car 1 has already traveled aprox 1 mile.
car two, doesnt catch car 1 untill its alredy stoped and at 3.5 miles.
car 2 states it drove 75mph to catch car 1. is this possible? if not what was the actual speed of car 1?
