| \(\large{ d_2 }\) = distance while passing vehicle occupies left lane | \(\large{ft}\) | \(\large{m}\) |
| \(\large{ \bar {u} }\) = average speed of passing vehicle | \(\large{\frac{ft}{sec}}\) | \(\large{\frac{m}{sec}}\) |
| \(\large{ t_2 }\) = time the passing vehicle occupies the left lane | \(\large{sec}\) | \(\large{s}\) |
