I wish I had could have given my answer which actually was the correct one you put there. I was going to say give the car to the friend and the old lady and saty there with the lover of your dreams. You get to take care of all 3 people with one easy decision.

Well being the dirty man, someone most likely would have died, and someone would have been good as left... I would pick the boss chick up and call for an ambulance for the old woman... The friend could continue to wait on the bus. Evidently if I ain't heard from him, he ain't that close of a friend. But point blank bottom line Noone dies in my truck....

Now this is definitely true....iggin' the hell out of em works wonders too.
 
I'm sorry, but

The lady would've died ;)

I figure picking up my friend would be the loyal thing - he is a friend & he did save my life before. I don't mean to sound cold, but the lady was about to die anyway! I hate these riddles cause if this was a real situation, I would've found out if taking that woman to the hospital would've saved her. But maybe I assume too much. As far as the woman of my dreams goes, oh well. Sometimes I really feel like things are just not meant to be. Again, I'd need more info. If it was my real "friend", we woulda had to discuss the girl real quick, and he woulda let me take her instead.

Still, I guess the given answer was best.
