Most people will agree with the sentiment I guess
hmm, quite clever, and i understand the point, but i'd struggle to add all that up whether she was talking or not. i've never had to count the number of people by the street before.
My point exactly, I see a person walking in front of me... Apparently me spotting the rabbit was a bad thing too cos it means I'm not paying
attention to all those other people...
I think I'd spot a rabbit in a packed train if I had a vantage point
it would be more accurate if she asked me questions, and i had to remember the answers (or click the right answer on the screen or something) and
press the space bar every time some little poo rode his bike into the road without looking
as for the rabbit, i think i do remember something not looking right, but i was too busy trying to remember who i counted and didn't count, and
how much they were worth
edit: i didn't say poo. i used a different word...

The test seems silly to me, why would i be trying to calculate scores and have a conversation whilst driving, your brain is doing a lot of
calculations to count the number of t shirts and remember how many points the are worth etc.
I added to 37! lol, so how does that work, plus i missed 8 questions. I seemed to be concentrating more on seeing if something was coming the other
way lol! Just natural way of thinking whilst sitting in the car!

hmm that is strange that we have the same score on both counts! not really sure what that means though
maybe it means they're lying :p

was thinking that myself...
It is interesting watching someone else do it! you see how much they miss, though they missed 8 questions despite tapping the space bar 3 times in
total!! they guessed 28 for the score which was nearly very lucky!
However i think i was counting the yellow t shirts as 2 and red as 1 which was the wrong way around explaining my high score...though it doesn't
explain why we got the same score!!
lol, maybe i'm thinking about this too much, need sleep!
i added on a few extra at the end
I missed 8 questions also but got 26 
also missed 8 questions!! apparently!!
I missed 8 questions, but only remember missing one BUT - I got 27 
Oh, I did see the rabbit too...
Just had the wife do it and she got the same score as me! No prompting from me, I left the room.
She missed the rabbit though (saying that cos it didn't have batteries it wasn't a rabbit she was interested in 
) so I showed her it was
there by doing it again - So I gave it another go re just the questions and surprise surprise, I missed 8 again???
It's a silly test.
In real life, you never pay attention on what people wear. You only look if there is someone around and you never keep score.
missed 8 questions, counted 32, saw the rabit.
i dont use my phone whilst driving, i dont swerve for rabits (
) and i dont judge people on their clothing. does that make me a good/bad driver?
bit of a pointless test IMO,
its fiction. I apparently missed 8 questions, and i wasnt even counting shirts!
Unless they are so dumb that they want a click for every comment, rather than every question?
just did it again without clicking at all and it still said 8 Qs missed. Is it possible there were 8 altogether and its not the space bar that we are meant to click?
wouldn't let me run no f++++r over got bored
tony
I can't believe noones cottoned on to hammering away at the spacebar!!
or does the defeat the object of the test
8 missed questions here too, although I did get 28 points, so nearly right. I didn't spot the rabbit, although I did sense that something was wrong or odd. It's a bit of a silly test though, as you would never drive along looking at people's T shirts and then counting the points up. It's also not how I would drive. I don't drive around looking at things in particular, If something is in the way you look at it, so having all the people crossing creates an unrealistic scenario.
