    A 1399 kg vehicle is speeding along a twisting road. Coming around a corner the driver spots an accident across the road ahead. He, hits the brakes, but still collides at 60.5 km/h. Without speeding (speed limit = 65 km/h) and under the same braking conditions he would have stopped just before hitting. How much faster than the speed limit was the car traveling?
