The number of cars that arrive at an inspection station within a time period of one hour follows a Poisson distribution with hourly rate/expectation λ = 5. Further, the time a car waits at the inspection station once it arrives before moving on (finishes inspection) follows an exponential distribution with parameter 0 = 3 minutes.
