It won't increase time automatically, it depends on WHEN the object moves into the oncoming path.
At about 10mph You can travel 15' in 1 second. If something gets in your path 10' feet out, there isn't enough time for you to react to avoid the collision. It isn't about the speed. It's about being aware of your surroundings.
