Overtaking is easy, right? I am afraid not. Overtaking is a hugely risky move in a vehicle and should be always treated with respect and only performed in optimal circumstances.

The general rule of overtaking should really be that you want to spend as little as time as possible on the wrong side of the road, in order to reduce the risk of the manoeuvre.

So where, when, how and what speed should you overtake another vehicle on the road? Well, there is no straight answer to that one Im afraid, it depends on a multitude of factors, most likely the following:

Your driver skill and experience first and foremost

Whether or not you can legally overtake, i.e. broken white lines

Whether or not you can see far enough ahead to determine if any traffic is oncoming

The performance of your car, and more importantly understanding that performance in a given situation and gear!

Driver Skill and Experience

If you are a learner driver or have recently only passed your test, then I'm afraid that you really shouldn't be travelling fast enough to require overtaking manoeuvres at any significant speed. You should still be building your confidence and skill of just physically "driving" your car and all that entails (breaking distances, cornering speeds, parking etc, basically the fundamentals). Your aim should be to become more "at home" with your driving and your vehicle, nothing more.

If on the other hand you have relevant experience then we will assume you have normal reactions, are comfortable in your vehicle and your abilities to control that vehicle (this cannot be true for learner or newly passed drivers in my opinion), then we can move on

Overtaking: The Manoeuver

So you are travelling at or under the speed limit and are fully aware of what your vehicle is capable of in a given gear and situation and have the necessary experience to be fully confident behind the wheel. You are driving along and up ahead you see a vehicle that is travelling at a slower speed than you are. Let us take it from here regarding an overtake on this vehicle.

Firstly, you should not speed up in order to "be up to speed" or "try and make it before a bend". You just keep travelling at your normal speed so that the car in front of you has time to see you coming in their rear-view mirror (that they should be will be checking in every 10-15 seconds or so, but you cannot assume this!).

You should only make the decision to overtake once you are behind the vehicle in front (legal braking distance that is!), not 200 metres back as you were "gaining speed". Once you have crossed the broken white lines, and have a clear view up ahead, which means enough space to pull out, overtake, pull back in without any pressure whatsoever, you indicate, make the pass and move back in front of the slower vehicle.

Depending on the speed of the vehicle in front you might have had to change down a gear, in order to maximise your acceleration while overtaking. I dont mean acceleration in terms of a 0-60mph sprint, but in a way that has your vehicle in the best gear for your speed in order to pass in the quickest possible time and get back to the correct side of the road. Experienced drivers will know their cars in this respect, according to their speed. If you do not understand this principle or do not know your vehicle capabilities then you should not attempt to overtake. All too often you seen someone pulling out and it is clear that they had no idea of what gear they should have been in, as they seem to spend an eternity on the manoeuvre as they had no power/acceleration from the vehicle as they were in too high a gear for the slow speed once they began to overtake. In an emergency situation, there is nowhere for any of the vehicles to go but into each other and it is extremely dangerous.

Another reason this might happen is that the person overtaking does not want to break the speed limit and creeps by the vehicle in front and is in the same position as the wrong gear driver. My question here is, why did you feel the need to overtake if the vehicle in front was travelling at the speed limit? This again comes down to driving experience and there is no substitute for this other than time behind the wheel.

The amount of time spent overtaking another vehicle should be no longer than 10 seconds or so from indicating and pulling out, to returning to your own side of the road after a successful overtake. Any longer than this and you are putting yourself and the other driver at unnecessary risk. So remember, while overtaking, BE BRISK, REDUCE THE RISK.

Comprehension and the Art of Speed Reading

Speed reading can improve your life. Speed reading can also improve your ability to assimilate information at an astonishing rate, in turn, making you a more valuable employee. While the ability to read quicker may be advantageous for some, for others it is more a matter of improving their comprehension of what they have read as well as being able to hold the information.

The average rate a person will read at is about two words per second with good retention, for most that will be fast enough. Engaging the use of a speed reading course has shown to improve a persons reading speed by four to six words per second without any loss of retention to the material. Over time, with the use of a speed reading course, you will be able to increase your reading speed 10 or more words per second with better than average comprehension.

The Course

Speed reading courses are designed to help readers choose the words worth reading and which ones are not. Being able to look at a word without having to concentrate on each and every letter to visualize the word is already practiced by most readers. By using a speed reading course you will be able to eliminate more words in a sentence increasing your rate of reading.

Speed and Quality

Perhaps one the biggest challenges in speed reading is what is termed subvocalization. Children are taught early on to read to themselves causing them to sound out every word in their head as they are reading. With speed reading, the words are not silently read in their mind while going through the material and only the words that have meaning to the context of the material is retained to become part of the comprehension of the material.

Different instruction techniques are taught for speed reading and they may not all have the same desirable outcome for each person looking to improve their reading speed. Unlike repetitious physical tasks where the same movements performed with practice will enable a person to perform the task quicker, speed reading attempts to train the brain to recognize only the words that are important to the materials being read without the need to hear them in their mind. However, similar to physical tasks, practice in speed reading will increase their reading speed as time goes on.

Some belive that speed reading is a technique set aside for genius types only. Not true. Speed reading is a skill that all can acquier. There are steps that you must follow that will help to increase your reading speed and most importantly your comprehension as well.

Learning To Speed Read

There are a number of ways that you can learn the art of speed reading. The first step on your journey is to take a speed reading test so that you can gauge your current level and give you a base to see how you are progressing.

Next you will want to find some form of speed reading instruction. Some prefer audio tapes that take you though various tips and tricks of learning how to accelerate your reading. Others prefer books or a combination of book and audio.

The method you choose is up to you,the important thing is to stick with it and check your progress every step of the way.

If I'm in a spaceship travelling at light speed, what happens when I run from the back to the front?

If I'm in a spaceship travelling at light speed, what happens when I run from the back of the spaceship to the front of the spaceship?

I know its impossible but notice the "IF" at the beginning of the question.

At relativistic velocities, you can't just add speeds like you can at everyday speeds.
This is because strange things happen to both distance and time at relativistic speeds, so speeds, and how you add them, get decidedly strange.

This is why a beam of light from a spaceship moving at .99C will be seen as moving at C by all observers. Nobody will see it moving at 1.99C.

Speed to burn
Speed wins. The slogan was written on the front of a T-shirt worn by Dell Rapids senior Matt Dunbar. On a related note, size doesn't matter. At least it didn't Saturday at the 86th Howard Wood Dakota Relays, as runners from small schools pulled off big feats in some of the marquee events. Dunbar won the 110- and 300-meter hurdles, both in meet-record fashion. Harrisburg senior Taylor Olson won ...
