    Travelling flat out at 27 mph on my electric bike, I can easily overtake a Porsche Taycan Sport travelling at 15 mph!

      If an object is traveling faster than another object, then that means that object can overtake the other object!

        Actually, going faster is only a necessary but not sufficient condition. The faster object also needs to be travelling in the same direction as the slower one for this to work.
