 travel times are 8 hours. It also says that the Car could go 400 miles in 
 that same 8 hour period.
 
 My question is which is correct. If the Car goes 400 miles then it's average 
 speed is 50 mph or If the Car's average speed is only 20 mph then it only 
 goes 160 miles in the 8 hours. >>

The 20mph average is the correct number, due to bad or blocked roads, fallen 
bridges etc. This means a car can only travel about 160 miles per 8 hour 
period.
