M: Sorry, I’m late. Did you hear about the trains?
W: Yes, I heard they were running late.
M: Well, I realized I might be late, so I tried to find a bus and on my way I bumped into Jerry. He offered me a lift on his motorbike. But unfortunately, it was exhausted by flameout, so in the end, I had to walk.
Question: Why is the man late?
