Driving to work has nothing to do with winning the lotto.

A Dependent event, one event depends on the other.. For example your odds of getting a parking ticket depends on where you park.
If you park legally your odds of getting a parking ticket are practically zero.
If you park illegally then your odds of getting a parking ticket go up and they may go up
depending on where you park illegally. Let's take a look at some basic questions you
can ask to figure out whether your particular event is dependent or independent.
The first question you want to ask is, is it possible for the events to happen in any
order? I'll show you an example of a few events.. Here's three events that can clearly happen in any order.
Tossing a coin and rolling a die. You could roll the die first; it does not
affect the outcome of tossing a coin. Buying a car and then buying a coat.
