[QUOTE="BigPoppa, post: 16221854, member: 177587"] Humans are inherently bad at judging the speed of an object moving toward or away from them. We typically can only judge speed with fair accuracy when the object is moving across our vision (think left to right and vice versa). The reason is that our brains need a reference point to judge the speed of the object and since the perspective of an object moving toward or away from us doesn't grant a good reference, we can't predict the speed of that object with any sort of accuracy. Remember that when looking in your mirror or checking oncoming traffic when making a turn. Although that vehicle you see looks like it isn't going that fast, it can be going much faster than you perceive. [/QUOTE]
