No cheating! No looking around! No getting out of your chair. Honour system in effect.
Apparently, the average is 7.
Somewhat American-centric.
1. On a standard traffic light, is the green on the top or bottom?
2. How many states are there in the USA? (Don't laugh, some people don't know)
3. In which hand is the Statue of Liberty's torch?
4. What six

I object. I've seen just as many cars with 4 lug nuts in their wheels. Seems they need to define "standard."
Here's a couple more for you:
26. At a pedestrian crossing, is the hand-symbol that flashes at you a right or a left hand?
27. In a horizontal traffic light, is the green at the right or the left?
28. If you add the number of pips on any two opposite faces of the same die, what sum do you get?
29. Which brake does the left hand brake lever on a typical 10-speed control, front or rear?
Bonus:
30. In a modern day electrical socket, what polarity is the wider slot?

That would be weird. It would mean that it's possible to have only one lugnut would support any given direction of torque. With five lugnuts, there are never fewer than 2 along any axis of torque.

Left.

Hey, this is suppsoe doit be common knowledge!

ANY geek knows this one! 7. Did you know that there are left-handed and right-handed dice?

Hahah. I thought you were talking about trucks there for a moment. Military trucks.

Forgot this one: I'm guessing it's positive. The other one is the live one, and that's the one you want to make sure you don't short, so you can't accidentally stick the groiund side in the live socket.

Interestingly, I got the number of American states question wrong. Why did I think there were 52? I probably added Alaska and Hawaii twice.

There's the heart states, the club states, the spade states...
No wait...
There's 50 states per year plus two states vacation ...
no wait...

I wonder where we got 52 from?

I wonder if they are counting Alaska and Hawaii as protectorates or something? Or am I thinking of Puerto Rico?
Busy, busy United States.
