For the answer to the question above, 

To be 0.1 miles away from the check point ,
 the car has to travel 1.4 miles OR 1.6 miles. 


53 miles = 60 minutes 

1.4 miles = 1.4 / 53 X 60 = 1.5849056 minutes OR 95.1 seconds 

1.6 miles = 1.6 /53 X 60 = 1.8113207 minutes OR 108.7 seconds 
So the answer is 95.1s and 108.7s
I hope my answer helped you
