Default What would you do?

What would you do?


1. You are in your C5, cruising at a constant speed.

2. On your right side is a sharp drop off.

3. On your left side is an elephant traveling at the same speed as
you.

4. Directly in front of you is a galloping kangaroo and your C5 is
unable to overtake it.

5. Behind you is a lion running at the same speed as you and the
Kangaroo.

6. What must you do to safely get out of this highly dangerous
situation?


If you do not know, see answer below.

I have been in this situation many times before, the elaphant will eventually yield the lane and the Kangaroo will stop for a bathroom break.
