The guy is playing monopoly. The car is his character.
IT DAWNED ON HIM BECAUSE HE WAS HALF A MILE FROM THE HOTEL, HAD ARRIVED AT SUNRISE BECAUSE HE RAN OUT OF PETROL AND REALISED THAT ALTHOUGH HE HAD LOTS OF MONEY HE WAS BANKRUPT OF IDEAS. HE HAD HAD AN IDEA TO TAKE A SIDE-TURNING 20 MILES BACK but but had ignored his own intuition. INTUITION can be a powerful part of lateral thinking!!
That's Awesome! I couldn't figure it out
in the first place he was pushing his car coz lack of fuel due to lack of money
playing monopoly and landed on opponents hotel
It was his hotel. As soon as he pulled up he saw the gates closed and a notice form bank that the hotel is seiged due to the pending dues.
Monopoly game.... he is screwed on his opponent hotel
he was drunk last day and had lost everything at the casino. but later he became sober, but failed to remember that he has become bankrupt. Now pulling into the hotel he identified casino and he immediately realized that he was bankrupt
