Yeah I was a bit confused by it. The only way you can judge accuracy here is either from the base source, Jose, or the between inter-witness congruity. But accuracy is bad terminology for this. Given another prompt:
Officers Joe Schmoe and Tits McGee arrive at the scene where Josb has a bloody face and says that the sky suddenly turned red and there are dolphins flying around. There are three witnesses. Witness 1 says there are pink and green dolphins flying around and attacked the man. Witness 2 says the sky turned green and two green dolphins attacked the man. Witness 3 says the sky turned pink and two pink dolphins attacked the man. No witness mentions the bag of mushrooms on the ground. Which account is the least accurate.
According to the information above, what is Josb's brother's name?
This reminds me of the DMV test when I moved to Oregon. The question was "You see a motorcycle coming towards you and its left blinker is on. Should you assume a) it is turning left, b) it is turning right, c) it is not turning, or d) none of the above." The correct answer was c with the explanation that motorcycle turn signals frequently don't automatically turn off. Despite this being literally the most dangerous answer.
If a vehicle is approaching you head on, isn’t it much safer to assume they aren’t turning? You’ll usually be wrong, but if you are right it could avoid a head on collision
I read it as, it's coming towards you in the other lane and has to cross your lane to turn left. If you "assume" it's not turning, you can just keep your speed rather than maybe slowing down just in case he doesn't see you coming.
It is presumably in the other lane. But let's look at modes of failure.
- Assuming the light is properly indicated but in this failure mode the motorcyclist turns. You collide and the motorcyclist faces serious injuries or dies.
- Assuming the light isn't properly indicating intention, you slow down, and cars behind you might also slow down. No one injured.
There is clearly one option that is significantly safer, even if the probability is low.
It its coming towards you in the other lane, which is the most likely circumstances for it to be moving towards you … Ignoring a turn signal sounds like a great way to have a head on collision.
