| Riddle.... You are driving in a car at a constant speed. On your left side is a 'drop off', (The ground is 18-20 inches below the level you are traveling on), and on your right side is a fire engine traveling at the same speed as you. In front of you is a galloping horse, which is the same size as your car and you cannot overtake it. Behind you is a galloping zebra. Both the horse and zebra are also traveling at the same speed as you. What must you do to safely get out of this highly dangerous situation? |

If you are from Kentucky you take the shotgun out of the passenger seat and shoot the Zebra.

if you are all going the same rate of speed none would be gaining on each other slowly back your speed down and get behind the fire truck when safe to do so |

Is everything stationary? So you need to do nothing? Or Is the Galloping horse the emblem on a mustang? So you just keep driving? |

The fire engine to the right would be going at a SLOWER speed but at the same rpm ;)
