A 1 ton truck carrying 1 ton of live pigeons approaches a bridge that can only bear a load of 1.2 tons. If the driver bangs on his ceiling and all the pigeons fly off their perches (and hover within the truck) can the bridge take the weight?

It depends. If Driver bangs and makes pigeons fly before the truck reach to the bridge, then there will be no problem. If he does over the bridge then it will be even more disaster.
