Speed, distance & stopping distance

Near Hoogkarspel you apply the fixed-point method. Statement: 'You start counting as soon as you yourself reach a marker post, and stop as soon as the car ahead reaches that post.'

Correct answer

False

Explanation

False — trap: applying the fixed-point method backwards. You count from the moment the CAR AHEAD passes the point until you reach it, not the other way round (Book p.123).
