Can you answer this (funny) moral dilemma interview question any better?

Today, I have a little moral dilemma test for you. This question (below) was used as part of a job application process to test a persons ethical/moral dilemma and probably creativity as well - but to be honest I think the company may have missed the point a little! Anyway it is amusing!!

So here goes with your question…..

You are driving down the road in your car on a wild, stormy night,when you pass by a bus stop and you see three people waiting for the bus:

1. An old lady who looks as if she is about to die.

 
2. An old friend who once saved your life.

 
3. The perfect partner you have been dreaming about.

Which one would you choose to offer a ride to, knowing that there could only be one passenger in your car?

Now 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.

One candidate (from 200 applicants) stood out - and was ultimately hired - with his answer, "I would give the car keys to my old friend and let him take the lady to the hospital. I would stay behind and wait for the bus with the partner of my dreams."

The motto here is that we gain more if we are able to give up our stubborn thought limitations, and think laterally (or if you want to use 'office speak' think outside the box!)

The test is to now for you to create a new answer to the same problem!!

Here is an example of what I mean: Run the old lady over and put her out of her misery, have sex with the perfect partner on the hoodof the car, then drive off with the old friend for a few beers.

But I just know you can do better!!
