Brain teasers are fun. People have been solving them for millennia and still we enjoy them. Putting the brain to the test, pushing beyond cognitive thinking, and utilizing logic and creativity, brain teasers satisfy our inherent urge to solve problems. With this, a new brain teaser is here for you to test your abilities!Below is a simple image of a moving school bus on the road of the U.S. You have to answer one simple question.
Which way is the bus going?Fun factDid you know kids are slightly quicker in answering such visual brain teasers (although they can be inaccurate sometimes)? And research by the University of London found out this is because children under 12 perceive visual information differently from adults.Logic and lateral thinking brain games provide a complete mental exercise by working on both logic and creative thinking. Some of these brain teasers require you to find the logic behind the puzzle to get the solution while some require out-of-the-box thinking that breaks from the traditional notions. This particular puzzle may seem difficult at first, but the question as well the picture has some hints hiding in them. Hint 1- Which country is the bus travelling in?Hint 2- In which direction are the kid’s hair moving?Well if you could find the solution- congratulations! But if you still couldn’t, here’s the reveal.Answer: The bus is traveling left. Look at the bus, the doors are not visible. This means the passengers would get on the bus from the opposite side. And since the bus is in the US, where they drive on the right side, the bus is traveling left. Secondly, since the kid’s hair is moving to the right, it suggests that the bus must be travelling in the opposite direction. If you enjoyed this brain teaser, and if it kept you busy for a while, don’t forget to share it with your family and friends to see who finds the solution fastest. Afterall, it’s a fun way to boost your abilities!Credits: smartbrainpuzzles
