Let’s suppose you are driving from your home to your friend’s place. Assume that there is a speed limit of 50Km/hr. Assume, it takes 1 hr to reach at your friend’s place. So, if you are driving at constant 50km/hr, you will reach after 1 hr.



Suppose, you were driving at 45Km/hr while you were passing through the traffic cameras and you were travelling at 55Km/hr at some point.



Application of Differentiation
the differentiation gives you at what interval what was your speed.
Basically, it tells your instantaneous velocity i.e. the speed at a particular time. So, that’s the power of differentiation. For e.g. somebody found that the relation between your position with respect to time. Perhaps, with gps map, they found the relationship position vs. time for your entire journey.



Distance covered = p^2 t + pt + p
where p is position and t is time.



So, do a differentiation now with respect to time to find out your speed at a particular time interval.



d(Distance)/dt i.e. velocity = 2pt + p + 0



So, let’s say at 0.5 hrs, your speed was -



let’s say you know the position also , it is 2.
Now, your speed was - 2*2*0.5 + 2 = 4km/hr.



Since your position was 4km/hr, you don’t have to be given a fine.



Is this a correct application?
Can a distance covered can be in terms of position and time?
Also, differentiating will give us velocity isn't it correct?

    You're missing a lot of physics concepts in there. I suppose it might be better to ask on the physics section instead. Nevertheless, note that your equation of movement on a straight line should be: $x(t) = x_0 + v_0 t + a t^2/2$ only when the acceleration $a$ is constant (note that the equation is different from what you wrote). If $a$ changes with time you would need to compute integrals to get the velocity $v(t)$ as a function of time and the position $x(t)$ as a function of time.
