An actual California Bar Examination question (from 1970's)

The California one is really, really tough.

Here was an actual California bar examination question (as best I can remember):


"Two vehicles are approaching an intersection. There has been a terrible storm going on, and the power was interrupted such that the signal light at the intersection now was displaying a green light from BOTH directions. The city had been notified of this, three hours previously, but had done nothing to fix the problem since that time. The first driver (#A) was speeding, and the other driver (#B) was not speeding, but was driving in violation of an ordinance which stated that you shall not operate a motor vehicle while under the influence of Alcohol.

BOOM!!!! (Crash!!). Discuss."



If THAT didn't sink you, the "Rule Against Perpetuities" certainly might...
