I asked this question 2 years ago.
Question at the interview:

You are driving your car on a stormy day. You pass by a bus stop and see three people waiting there.
The first is the perfect companion of your dreams;
The second is an old friend who once saved your life;
The third is a lonely old lady who looks really sick;
If you only have one other seat in your car, who would you offer a ride to?

Members tackled a fun riddle about who to help at a bus stop during a storm, with the most popular choice being the sick elderly woman, driven by compassion and a sense of duty to elders. Several members came up with creative solutions, like giving the car keys to a trusted friend to drive the elderly woman while staying behind to connect with their dream companion, which turned out to be the intended 'correct' answer. A recurring theme was that kindness, quick thinking, and looking out for the most vulnerable person were values the whole community seemed to share.

I would ask the old friend to take my car and drive the old woman to the hospital and stay with the possible new companion to get to know HIM better and call uber or snuggle under the umbrella until the bus comes. I see him there he is "HEY HUBBY"

Ok, I said I would post the answer on Friday, and there is 42 minutes left of Friday in my time zone. So before I forget, here is the answer.
You are hired if your answer was:
have the friend take the car and the old lady, you stay with your dream companion.
(by that time your friend should be back to pick you and you have your dream companion's number)
So, Who all got hired?

It would be the old lady because I already have the companion of my dreams and the friend I already have also because we been best friends for almost 40+ yrs. And they would want me to see about the old lady first anyway.

@A myHIVteam Member, the correct answer is:
Have your friend take the car with the old lady.
Then you stay with the companion of your dreams till the bus comes.
By this time you have the companion's contact information and your friend comes back to pick you up.

I would assist the lady who appears to be ill. She would be my most pressing concern because there may be a health crisis. My friends know me and that response would not surprise them. I would approach my dream partner and say, "I think that you are absolutely beautiful and would love to get to know you better. If you are interested, here is my name and number." My friend would understand my choice and probably put in a good word with the dream partner. We would "dish" about it later, lol.
