A short quiz!
You're driving down a five-lane road en route to the most delicious Mexican food in this part of the state. Ahead of you, in the two lanes that will ultimately deliver you to chili relleno bliss are two cars.
In the left lane is a car driven by a very old man who is weaving. In addition, he is towing an open cart-like apparatus crammed with lawn equipment. With each swerve and bump in the road, a weedeater casually slung into the cart edges closer and closer toward tumbling out into the road.
In the right lane is a beater car whose left rear tire is so flat that it is causing the car to swerve with every lump, bump, hill, dip, pothole, crater, and stretch of shattered pavement that make driving in this city both a joy and a delight.
So, in other words, both lanes ahead of you are blocked with cars that seem bound and determined to be a hazard.
Which one do you follow in hopes of the other car eventually outpacing its neighbor and eventually allowing you to escape from behind the two of them?
