Default One more IQ challenge

Scenario:

You are driving in a car at a constant speed. On your left side is a valley and on your right side is a fire engine travelling at the same speed as you. In front of you is a galloping pig which is the same size as your car and you cannot overtake it. Behind you is a helicopter flying at ground level. Both the giant pig and the helicopter are also travelling at the same speed as you.


What must you do to safely get out of this highly dangerous situation?

Dont do anything, just deal with the situation. Or just use ur horn to scar the pig or scream to the fire engine to slow down.

The fire engine(truck) will eventually run out of legs and you can then change lanes and pass the pig....but be careful he doesn't pull you over for speeding...lol

Ask Dr Phil..........he knows stuff.

But seriously.......... slow down slightly. If the FIRE ENGINE is going to an emergency, he'll keep speeding. As he goes past, just move over to your right lane. If he's not on an emergency run, RING 000 and report a bogus FIRE in the immediate area and off he goes.......then follow step above to get into right lane and slow down.

After you get back home........repair exhaust leak to prevent carbon monoxide from leaking into cabin again thus preventing subconscious delerium from reoccuring !!!!!!!!!!!!!

tell the cop to stop trying to "gallop" on 4 legs and get on 2 and f##K off to the local "krispy kreme" (apparently is all the hype).

tell the chopper to stop being a d###head and there are low power lines coming up.

tell the fire fighters if they dont hurry up they will be on fire soon.
