OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

the bus is stationary?

OpenStudy (theviper):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The bus is in motion, but it's in a snowstorm, so there's no road or landmarks that you can see :)

OpenStudy (theviper):

@UnkleRhaukus is right:) Bus is symmetrical & roads not given nothing but a bus given:)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Forward is assumed. It's either moving left or right from your point of view.

OpenStudy (theviper):

Bus is going to crash!

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

the door must be on the side we cant see

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Right side.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yep :) The bus is going left because you can't see the door. http://www.sadanduseless.com/2010/01/which-way-is-this-bus-going/

OpenStudy (theviper):

Right ans is:- Bus is @ rest.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@TheViper The question tells you it's moving left or right, therefore "at rest" is not an acceptable answer.

OpenStudy (sriram):

to the left coz the distance betwn the wheel and bus is more on the left am i right??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@Sriram It's a symmetrical picture.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i dont think so @Sriram

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

the driver is in the middle of the road|dw:1340611466499:dw|
