A speed record is an official measurement that shows the highest speed achieved by a vehicle, person, or object under specific conditions. It’s verified by organizations that set rules to ensure fairness and accuracy. For example, cars, boats, or aircraft may aim to break the existing speed record by reaching a new maximum speed. These records often require specialized equipment, precise timing, and adherence to safety standards. Speed records showcase technological progress and human ability to push the boundaries of performance in various modes of transportation.
