You are standing on a train with an acceleration of 2 meters per sec squared. Your velocity is 0 with respect to the train, but your acceleration is a constant 2 with respect to the ground.

In cases where both are with respect to the same reference frame (as is usually assumed), they both must be 0 for your case to apply.
