Really!
“Rate of speed” means “acceleration” not “speeding” or “traveling fast”.
This has bugged me for years. TV News broadcasts and police officers saying, “The suspect was traveling at a high rate of speed.”
Really? The suspect was accelerating?
And some of the time, the suspect ends up crashing, well to be precise he was decelerating rapidly when he crashed, he might have been accelerating, but given he crashed there had to be a deceleration in there somewhere. Unless they managed to find some new physics and physical laws somewhere.
/sigh
Here’s the first result from a Google search for “high rate of speed”.[/fusion_builder_column][/fusion_builder_row][/fusion_builder_container]
