    This document summarizes a student project that measured the average speed of cars traveling to and from School N. The student used a stopwatch and measuring tape to record the time and distance traveled for 10 cars entering and leaving the school's designated zone. The data collected was analyzed and presented in a table. Based on the findings, the student concluded that most vehicles obeyed the school's 10 km/h speed limit, as evidenced by all 15 vehicles taking less than 30 seconds to travel between the measurement points. Therefore, the student determined that vehicle speeds on campus likely did not negatively affect children's safety.

    Project Title

    To deduce the average speed of cars traveling to and from a designated area in School N and

    to determine the average numbers of drivers who follow the speed limit set by the school

    management.
    Introduction

    Students at school N, travel to school by various transportation modes. The school consists

    of approximately 1825 students.

    The speed limit at School N was set at 10 km/h. The school management has set this speed

    limit for students who travel by car to ensure that safety is maximized, however it is common

    that cars will break the speed limit for various reasons. It seems that the average amount of

    commuters has problems with the speed limit as there has been a recent occurrence of

    accidents on the campus.

    The aim of the project is to determine the average speed of cars travelling to and out of a

    designated zone at the school and the data collected will be later used to deduce the average

    number of drivers following the speed limit. The findings will be used to make informed

    decisions and to ascertain information of the number of drivers who follow the speed limit

    and those who disobey. The researchers will make recommendations to the school

    management where applicable to improve better commute time on school campus.


    Method of data collection
    The research ascertained the relevant information to complete this research as the researcher

    used a stopwatch and a measuring tape. The researcher found a suitable area on the school

    compound to collect data. The researcher used a measuring tape to measure a designated area

    of the road. The speed was taken by method of the stopwatch for 10 cars entering and leaving

    the school compound. Five cars entering and five leaving. The speed was calculated as

    distance over time This data was the used to compare the number of cars following and

    disobeying the speed limit of the school. The results were then tabulated.
    Presentation of data

    sketch of road
    Analysis of data
    Discussion of findings

    The survey has revealed that the vehicles that travel through the school campus

    stays within the speed limit. Evidence to prove this include:

    1. All fifteen vehicles took less than 30s to travel from point a to point b.

    2. The speed of the vehicles of proximity

    3. The minimum speed may be a huge moving vehicle (truck) while the

    maximum speed might be a small moving vehicle such as a car or bike


    Conclusion

    In conclusion the speed of vehicle travelling through the school campus might not affect the

    children walking on the campus since most of the vehicles obey the recommended speed

    limit. Evidence to prove this include:

    1. All of the vehicles took less than 30s to travel in the designated area in which the

    researcher investigated.

    2. The speed of the vehicle are of proximity so it is safe for children to move along the

    school campus safely.
