Puja and Neha are close friends.Puja is a science graduate and Neha is a commerce graduate.Puja finds that while driving on a clear highway,Neha often exceeds the speed limit and agrues that there is no harm in doing so when the road is clear.Puja does not agree with her and tells her that with increase in speed, stopping distance of car would increase and she would not be able to manage things if some stray cattle etc. appears suddenly on the way.Read the above passage and answer the following questions :
