Josef is late for a wedding and is speeding down a straight road at 145 km/hr when he passes an officer sitting in a police car parked behind a billboard at the side of the road. Two seconds after Josef's car passes him, the officer accelerates the police car from rest and maintains maximum acceleration of 8.5 km/hr s until he reaches a top speed of 210 km/hr. Eventually the officer gets within 150 m of the speeding vehicle and turns on the flashing lights. Josef sees the lights in his rearview mirror and panics, slamming on the brakes and starting to skid. Josef's car slows down at a rate of 5.5 m/s². It takes the officer 0.5 seconds to realize what is happening and to move his foot to the brake pedal before he can start to slow down. The police car slows down at a rate of 6 m/s².
