Last evening on my way to dinner with friends Bob and the Old Professor , I stopped at the ATM to get some cash . The ATM is located on the side of the bank next to the driveway , and there 's a parking lot on the other side of the drive . This being Friday , and with a hurricane spooling up in the Atlantic , there was a line of about four or five people waiting to use the machine , but I had no trouble finding a place to park . As I waited in line , a large Chevy Suburban pulled up to the curb and parked in the driveway . A woman got out and got in line , leaving the behemoth in the driveway in spite of the large NO PARKING sign right next to it .
Why does the forthcoming hurricane lead many people to want to use the ATM ?
Pick the best answer from the following options:
A. They are hoping to buy as much alcohol as possible to pass time during the storm
B. None of the above choices .
C. They are unsure of the next time they 'll be able to use the ATM and want to make sure
D. They are going to gamble with each other while the storm rages outside
