Seeing them going away at about 100kph each. In the "about", you must
put the speed of the light... you can neglect it for car, but not galaxy
far far away in the universe. Same goes for a driver, it's also about
200kph, with yet that speed of light to take into account.
(but the red shift for the car is really so small...)
