Everything old is new again:
"Never underestimate the bandwidth of a station wagon full of tapes hurtling down the highway." —Tanenbaum, Andrew S. (1989). Computer Networks. New Jersey: Prentice-Hall. p. 57. ISBN 0-13-166836-6.

Not really built in if it's out of band.
The rag-tag team of ex-spies have to band together with the younger techy team to hijack a Snowmobile and modify data on the fly, barreling down the highway.
I just got you unlimited international calling time
Sadly, Burt Reynolds isn't available to drive (he needs assistance to get around these days)
"Snowmobile is protected by 24/7 video surveillance and alarm monitoring, GPS tracking, and may be escorted by a security vehicle during transit." According to the FAQ.

I saw a few students nearly have a breakdown over that one.
I must stress this was a single question on a single first-year exam. Not representative of the whole course in the slightest.
You want bytes/seconds (i.e. quantity of data per unit time).
You have:
- Distance per unit time (km/h)
- Payloads per unit distance (# of flights per km)
- Quantity of data per payload (bytes per flight)
