to be more clear...on a cosmic scale if two vehicle were traveling from opposite sides of the universe toward each other at 60 light years a second, they WOULD NOT collide at 120 light years a second. In fact, they would never collide at all...ever.

The universe is expanding at 3.2 million light years a second. This means that the longer they travel toward each other at 60 light years per second, the farther apart they would be.
