OK, Which Way?

[Turtle]

This is a picture of a bus located in Anywhere , USA. The bus is moving. Which direction is the bus moving, to the left or to the right?

80% of kids 10 years old and younger got the answer nearly immediately, without hesitation, without having to think about it. 80% of adults are flummoxed. Can you figure it out?

It's NOT moving,silly.

Small sample size, but here we have 75% flummoxed already.

Kids needn't waste time trying to figure out some bizarre optical illusion brain teaser. They get on and off school buses every day. At a glance they know where the doors are, and they ain't on this side of the bus.
