Are you still moving at all?

it doesn't tell me how fast there going

Well, then we'll need an assumption.   Shall we assume this trip has been and always will be EXACTLY the same speed?

As the trip goes along, "time you have travelled" increases.
As the trip goes along, "miles to reach destination" decreases.

Well, I guess we also need to assume you are actually headed toward your destintation.
