Their velocities will be the same at the instant their lines on the graph intersect.

When you look far ahead as you drive, you are looking down at the area just in front of your vehicle. In driving, you do not make steering adjustments based on what is in front of you, and that is looking down at the road. If you do this, your driving will be smoother and safer.
