    That happens all the time. The answer is: One frame of reference

    is moving inside the other one.

    Example:

    - - You're sitting still, comfortable in a soft seat, reading a book.

    In the frame of reference of the seat, you're not moving, and

    neither is the book.

    - - The soft seat is in Row-17 of the passenger jet you're flying

    in, at 37,000 feet. In the frame of reference of somebody on

    the ground, you're moving at 500 miles per hour.
