1. Choices In A Stormy Night

1. You are driving down the road in your car on a wild, stormy night, when you pass by a bus stop and you see three people waiting for the bus:

1. An old lady who looks as if she is about to die.
2. An old friend who once saved your life.
3. The perfect partner you have been dreaming about.

Knowing that there can only be one passenger in your car, whom would you choose?

Hint: You can make everyone happy. Your car can only contain one passenger, so whom should it be?
Solution: The old lady of course! After helping the old lady into the car, you can give your keys to your friend, and wait with your perfect partner for the bus.

You could also consider the perfect mate and leave your friend who saved your life with the old lady. If your friend saved your life once, they might do it again.

The solution to the puzzle is to give the keys to your friend first, who can drive the lady home, avoiding unnecessary trips.
