You are driving along in your car on a wild, stormy night,
it's raining heavily, when suddenly you pass by a bus stop,
and you see three people waiting for a bus:
An old lady who looks as if she is about to die.
An old friend who once saved your life.
The perfect partner you have been dreaming about.
Which one would you choose to offer a ride to,
knowing very well that there could only be one passenger in
your car?
This is a moral/ethical dilemma that was once actually used
as part of a job application.
* You could pick up the old lady, because she is going to
die, and thus you should save her first;
* or you could take the old friend because he once saved
your life, and this would be the perfect chance to ! pay
him back.
* However, you may never be able to find your perfect mate
again.

The answer about giving the keys to your friend to take the lady to hospital, seems like the ideal solution, but it is WRONG. The question was "which would YOU give a lift to?" Giving the keys to someone else is NOT "giving a lift" to someone, so sadly, optimal though that answer may be, it is not allowed. Also, it presumes that your friend would want to take the lady to hospital. If you friend was going somewhere else, they might not want to take the detour of driving your car, and in fact, what if I told you that they were not qualified to drive ? What then ? No, the most moral, ALLOWED solution would be to take the lady to hospital yourself, if your friend had saved your life, they would not mind waiting. And set what about the other person, you would have to stop and talk to them, you could easily talk to all of them and ask for all their details, and even ask the man / lady depending on your sexual preference, for their number so that you can call them once you have dropped off the lady, to see whether they are still waiting, so that you can come and collect them if they are.
