If one object is moving much slower than the speed of light, its speed can be added to that of another object.

The people are moving much slower than the speed of light so the ground acts as a frame of reference.

The motion of everything in the Universe besides light can be described in this way.

As long as the frame of reference is stationary, all motion can be described in this way.

The correct response is:
As long as the frame of reference is stationary, all motion can be described in this way.
This is because when analyzing motion, we often use a stationary frame of reference (in this case, the ground) to determine the velocities of moving objects by adding or subtracting their velocities relative to that frame.
