Well...wouldn't it be more accurate to say that my measurement of the time and distance between two events is relative to my velocity; that is, for all observers at the same fixed velocity, their respective measurements of spatial/temporal displacements will be the same?
Maybe you're referring to the uncertainty principle, which implies that the values of two noncommutative observables cannot both be known to arbitrary degrees of accuracy simultaneously (such as the position and momentum of a particle governed by the Schrodinger Equation).
