A hiker was resting along a narrow and steep mountain pass when he sees a truck driving backwards up the mountain. He flags the truck down and asks the men inside, “Why are you guys driving backwards?” “Because we don’t think there’s a place to make a U-turn at the top of the mountain,” the driver replied. About an hour later the hiker sees the same truck coming back down the mountain, still driving backwards. He flags the truck down again and asks the men inside, “Why are you guys still driving backwards?” And the disgusted driver replied, “Turns out, there was a place to make a U-turn up there.”
