Diane CBPFC:
You are driving in a car going at a constant speed.

On your left side is a drop off and on your right side is a fire engine traveling at the same speed as you.

In front of you is a galloping horse which is the same size as your car and you cannot overtake it.

Behind you is a galloping zebra.

Both the horse and zebra are also traveling at the same speed as you .

What must you do to safely get out of this potentially dangerous situation?

(Try figuring it out before looking at the answer below.)
