Show the payoff matrix for the two drivers engaged in this


Que.

Two guys (suffering from testosterone poisoning) engage in the game of chicken. They drive toward each other in the middle of a road. As they approach the impact point, each has the option of continuing to drive down the middle of the road or to swerve.

Both believe that if only one drive swerves, that driver loses face (payoff=0) and the other gains in self-esteem (payoff=2). If neither swerves, they are maimed or killed (payoff = -10). If both swerve, no harm is done to either (payoff=1).

Show the payoff matrix for the two drivers engaged in this game of chicken. Determine the Nash equilibrium for this game.
