All velocities can only be measured relative to something. To answer the question, we can only say with any certainty that one object is moving at a speed of x relative to another object. One galaxy to another, an asteroid to a planet, one car to another car.
There is no "true speed", all speeds are relative.
... I guess that means that speed isn't a fundamental quantity of physics!!?? *gasp*
I hope that helps or at least confuses the subject a little more.
