Topic
Lucky drivers who have never paid a speed ticket. Unlucky people who's been hurt by those who were not able to control their speed. Automatic speed control systems help keep the roads safe.

Measure, analyze, think
- Make your own recording
Example result of measurement:
- Perform the measurements and discuss in your group what has happened.
Explore and modify
- Modify the program so that it will measure the maximum speed instead of the average
- Modify the model so that it will be propelled by motors, and make a program to move in constant velocity, then repeat the measurement
Present
- Prepare a short presentation for the group. Tell others about how your measurement went, what issues did you have to solve. What do they mean and why did they happen?
