Forget about the fifth graders out there, we have new competition!

See how you do with this Pre-Schooler's Test!

Which way is the bus below traveling?

To the Left.......or to the Right? 

 

Bus

 

Have you figured it out yet?

Are you sure?

Look carefully at the picture again.

Still undecided?

Pre-Schoolers from all over the United States were shown this picture and asked the same question.  Over 90% of them answered, "It is traveling to the LEFT!"

Can you figure out why?

Still confused (as I was)?

When asked why the bus is traveling to the left the Pre-Schoolers answered, "Because you can't see the door to get on the bus!"

Have our lives become that complicated that we can't even see the simple things in life?

Have a great day!

Lucky :)

Hey Lucky I had seen this before and agree I was stumped too. LOL

HAHA.  Duh!  Ok, I'll admit.  I was stumped.  I now know what little Kelly Pickler feels like.  Thanks for that Lucky. :)

Jay,

Isn't it amazing!  I have lots of verbal ones that I have done over the years that are a riot.  Just can't figure out a way to do them on here.

Have a GREAT 2008!

Lucky :)

Jesse,

I love Kelly Pickler!  She is adorable!  Unfortunately, she couldn't quite compete with the talent that she was up against. 

Keep Mrs. Santa Claus warm up there!

Lucky :)

To the left.....there is no door shown on the side, so it must be heading left?

...whoops....guess I should have finished reading your post....that was the answer anyhow!  And no, I didn't cheat!  ;)

Thanks for the giggle! 

Next post titled:  Finishing reading the entire post before you answer the question!  LOL....

Lucky, I got it wrong as well, does this mean we're all going back to school?  And starting at 5th grade??  Goodness, I'm not feeling very bright at the moment!

Well I must admit you got me on that one Lucky. How silly for me not to see this.

01/13/2008 01:10 PM by Judy Tuscano, NH Real Estate Professional (Prudential Verani Realty)

Some time it seems that the most obvious answer to a question, is the most obscure. You got me this time.

01/13/2008 01:33 PM by Larry Hammelman Sterling, Illinois Real Estate (Mel Foster Co.)

Becky,

You crack me up!  Were you like my wife in school, a speed reader?

Lucky :)

Sorry!  It's worse than that!  We're all heading back to PRE-SCHOOL!

01/13/2008 02:25 PM by Lucky Lang, Davenport, Iowa Real Estate (Mel Foster Company)

Lucky, good one. I did not get this one. I don't know what that means but I don't think it good.

01/14/2008 04:57 AM by Frank Rubi Louisiana Real Estate-Homes for Sale (Specialized Real Estate Services, Inc.)

Frank,

Don't be so hard on yourself!  It just means you are complicated!

Lucky :)

I was stuck on "Straight at Me .... RUN!!! "  I thought it was a trick question... It could be... but you were clear on your right or left option :)

01/18/2008 08:00 AM by Kim Wood REALTOR(R), PA

Kim,

You are too funny!

Lucky :)

01/19/2008 06:59 AM by Lucky Lang, Davenport, Iowa Real Estate (Mel Foster Company)
