Nerve impulses do not travel at 170 mph; instead, they can vary significantly in speed depending on the type of nerve fiber. In myelinated fibers, impulses can travel at speeds up to about 120 meters per second (approximately 268 mph), while unmyelinated fibers are much slower. Thus, while some nerve impulses can approach high speeds, they do not typically reach 170 mph.
