0 Prof. Templeton Posted October 21, 2009 Report Share Posted October 21, 2009 I can think of two scenarios This takes place in the future where buses are fully automated and need no driver. Zero people on the bus after the mall.The driver is in the bus and at each stop people actually get on top of the bus (thrill-seekers, perhaps. Probably against the law too) at the mall everyone who was on the bus gets off, leaving the driver the only one in the bus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Guest Posted October 22, 2009 Report Share Posted October 22, 2009 There are ZERO people left, you said EVERYBODY got off. Assuming there was a driver in the first place, he/she got off too.. If the driver stayed on, then the statement everybody get off would be false. As far as the bus drives off. the driver clearly forgot to set the parking brake, many cars were damaged, the driver lost his job and has to repay for the damages to the cars & the starbucks where the bus came to rest.

So with your logic, 64 other people may have gotten on whilst the driver was in the potty. Therefore 65 would be just as valid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The driver forgot the parking brake. It rolled down the hill and crashed into starbucks. Then Lil Stinker hopped into the bus and drove off. Satisfied?
