At a speed of 60 mph, how far does your car travel in 3 seconds

One of the many random useless factoids that I carry around
in my head is the factoid that 60 miles per hour is equivalent
to exactly 88 feet per second.

So in three seconds at that speed, you would cover exactly

(3 x 88) = 264 feet.
