If an object traveling in one direction has a positive velocity, what kind of velocity would the same object traveling in the opposite direction have?

Regardless of the direction being traveled, any object on the move has a positive velocity, even if it is moving backwards, because velocity is the measure of the rate of movement in a given direction. Compare: A car is measure of the rate of movement in a given direction. Compare: A car is turns round (or even it doesn't turn round, but just reverses) and travels at 100 km/h, how fast is it travelling? The answer is 100 km/h in both cases. (But reversing on a highway and travelling at 100 km/h is not recommended!) Hope this helps :) Medals are appreciated.
Thanks :)
thank you
