A certain police officer stops cars for speeding. The number of red sports cars she stops in one hour is a Poisson process with rate 4, while the number of other cars she stops is a Poisson process with rate 1. Assume that these two processes are independent of each other. Find the probability that this police officer stops at least 2 ordinary cars before she stops 3 red sports cars.
