Four Cars

Four cars come to a four way stop, all coming from a different direction. They can't decide who got there first, so they all go forward at the same time. They do not crash into each other, but all four cars go. How is this possible?

The beagle boys

In the cartoon show, Duck Tales (and in the comics), the beagle boys always had the numbers 167 used in two different sequences on their shirts to indicate their prison number. For instance, one beagle boy had the number 167 671, while another had 761 716. The only restriction was the pattern could not be repeated, so the number 167 167 would not be possible. How many different combinations could they have and still be unique?

In other words, how many beagle boys could there be?
