-- Use a ginormous ruler to measure the straight-line distance between the start-point and the end-point.  It doesn't matter what route the car actually took to travel from start to finish.  All that matters is the straight-line distance.

-- Write down the distance you measured with the straight ruler, and the direction the ruler is pointing.

-- That number and direction, together, are the displacement.  It has a size and a direction.  It's a vector.
