2. Great-circle distance - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great-circle_distance

   The great-circle distance, orthodromic distance, or spherical distance is the distance between two points on a sphere, measured along the great-circle arc between them. This arc is the shortest path between the two points on the surface of the sphere. (By comparison, the shortest path passing through the sphere's interior is the chord between ...

3. Two-second rule - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-second_rule

   The two-second rule provides a simpler way of perceiving the distance. To estimate the time, a driver can wait until the rear end of the vehicle in front passes any distinct and fixed point on the roadway—e.g. a road sign, mailbox, line/crack/patch in the road. After the car ahead passes a given fixed point, the front of one's car should pass ...

4. Great-circle navigation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great-circle_navigation

   Great-circle navigation or orthodromic navigation (related to orthodromic course; from Ancient Greek ορθός (orthós) 'right angle' and δρόμος (drómos) 'path') is the practice of navigating a vessel (a ship or aircraft) along a great circle. Such routes yield the shortest distance between two points on the globe.

5. Point system (driving) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Point_system_(driving)

   Point system (driving) Many countries have adopted a penalty point or demerit point system under which a person’s driving license is revoked or suspended based on the number of points they’ve accumulated over a specific period of time. Points are given for traffic offenses or infringements committed by them in that period.

6. Automotive navigation system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automotive_navigation_system

   Mathematically, automotive navigation is based on the shortest path problem, within graph theory, which examines how to identify the path that best meets some criteria (shortest, cheapest, fastest, etc.) between two points in a large network. Automotive navigation systems are crucial for the development of self-driving cars. [1]

7. Hours of service - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hours_of_service

   Parts of a driver's work day are defined in four terms: On-duty time, off-duty time, driving time, and sleeper berth time.. FMCSA regulation §395.2 states: [5]. On-duty time is all time from when a driver begins to work or is required to be in readiness to work until the driver is relieved from work and all responsibility for performing work.
