[OZXJR]

You are riding a horse.
In front of you there is a fire engine.
You are being followed by a helicopter.
To your left a sports car is driving,and to your right there is a 2 foot drop.

How can you arrange that you will all stop simultaneously, without crashing and without mutual communication?


PM answers please.

Hmm, here I was going to set the horse on fire.

The fire engine stops to put the horse out. In the process, it turns on its lights and siren, causing the sports car to have to stop as well.

The helicopter will hover overhead filming the entire event.

The only trouble was, a horse on fire is not likely to hold still, at least not at first.
