Frame of reference Memes

Einstein would be PROUD of this speeding ticket defense! When the driver says "speed is relative," they're invoking Einstein's theory of relativity where measurements like speed depend on the observer's frame of reference. From the driver's perspective, they were perfectly stationary while the world zoomed past them! The cop's radar gun is merely measuring relative motion between two reference frames! *adjusts wild scientist hair* Of course, this brilliant physics defense probably won't hold up in traffic court... unless the judge happens to be a quantum physicist moonlighting in the judicial system. The universal speed limit is still 299,792,458 m/s (speed of light), so technically they weren't even CLOSE to breaking the cosmic law!
