Excessive speed & Speeding
Speeding is defined as travelling faster than the posted speed limit, or travelling too fast for the road conditions even at speeds under the posted limit.
Linear Momentum
A quantity associated with the motion of an object along a straight path. The linear momentum of an object is defined to be equal to its mass times its velocity.
Pedestrian Manifestations
Those items of evidence deposited at the collision scene by the pedestrian during or following impact.
Aggressive Drivers (road rage)

Momentum
The mass of an object multiplied by its velocity. It is a vectored quantity with both magnitude and direction.
Reference Point
In angular momentum, the point in space around which the motion of an object is described. The angular momentum of an object is defined in relation to some point, the reference point. The velocity and radius of an object are measured from the reference point.
PT - Physical Therapy
