You can’t answer this brain teaser, but a preschooler can

Lots of kids start school tomorrow, so figured I'd post this question which was sent to us a couple days ago:

Which way is the bus below traveling?

To the left or to the right?

Can't make up your mind?

 

 

Look carefully at the picture again.

 

 

Still don't know?

 

 

Pre-schoolers all over the United States were shown this picture and asked the same question.

 

 

90% of pre-schooler's gave this answer.

 

 

 

"The bus is traveling to the left".

 

 

When asked, "Why do you think the bus is traveling to the left?"

 

 

 

They answered:

 


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

    The first thing that came to mind was towards me, looking at the grill (don’t know if thats the correct english word :) ) and the two headlights…

    They never said where the bus was located. And the bus is a palindromic picture, and the kids might load from the back.

    It would be different in the UK for example, since everything here to do with the roads are normally wrong… and maybe also because traffic here travles the other way


    tip for the site manager of smart-kit: the text size of this box people write in is small o.O can’t read it without the zoom tool
