Riddle of the Week
A bus driver was heading down a street in Colorado. He went right past a stop sign without stopping, he turned left where there was a "no left turn" sign and he went the wrong way on a one-way street right past a police car. The police officer did nothing. Why?

Is it because the police officer was sleeping in his car?

No, the police officer saw the bus driver.
DeleteIs it because the police officer is friends with the bus driver?

No, the bus driver and the police officer don't know each other.
DeleteWas it because the police officer was walking and the bus driver was driving! Michelle
ReplyDeleteNo, but you're getting closer!
DeleteWas it because the bus driver was walking and the police officer was driving? Hi Ms Birdsall!! I'm at my village and they have internet!
DeletePawan
good job at guessing pawan -Ryan.A-
DeleteI am so happy to hear from you, Pawan! It's great to see that you are able to access the blog from your village. Congratulations, your guess is also correct. The bus driver was walking, so none of the things he did were illegal. That's why the police officer didn't do anything!
DeleteBecause the bus was an ambulance.Hareum
ReplyDeleteWas it because the police officer wasn't loking and was talking on the phone!!!
ReplyDeletehe was in the donut shop and diddnt see what he was doing hehehe... or he was sleeping on the job.

You're right, Ryan, although Pawan posted this idea first. Well done!
DeleteMrs. Birdsall we tried to solve this riddle too. Someone in my class thought that the police officer was busy eating donuts. Some one else thought maybe the police officer was watching the Canucks on his laptop. But we see though that the bus driver was walking which is why the police officer didn't give him a ticket. He wasn't driving the bus at the time. Thanks for sharing your riddles with us. We may come and check them out again.
