Preschool test

Look at the picture below.

Which way is the bus below travelling?

To the left or to the right?



Can't make up your mind?

Look carefully at the picture again.

Still don't know?


Primary school children all over the UK were shown this picture and asked the same question.

90% of them gave this answer:

'The bus is travelling to the right.'

When asked, 'Why do you think the bus is travelling to the right?'

They answered:

'Because you can't see the door to get on the bus.'


How do you feel now???

Don't you just hate it when kids are smarter than you!

I even had to think about when I read the answer!

I've just sat here & posed this question to MM (but for the sake of my health we wont discuse the answer ) .

I also thought could this be a trick question it might be a foreign bus ( it would help my answer).

When you look at it the answer does stare you in the face but how do they know I mean you pass any school in the morning & theres shed loads of cars dropping the little darlings off so how do they know about BUSES .

I have left and right dxyslexia - I always get them mixed up..

I had no idea the answer when I was sent the email. I read it twice before it dawned on me, and I thought I was quite intelligent!
