"99% of the population won't have this problem because"
they don't use facebook or photo sharing sites or ... oh wait I guess they do. That might be a problem.
I don't think this is rocket science here. Find my FB account, find my mom, what is her brother/uncle/fathers last name, or just look at her "friends" list and try the most common last names. Or heck just try them all, there won't be more than a couple hundred to try and thats easier than bruteforcing the entire phone book. Heck just use my friends list, I know enough men on my moms side of the family. Done. Next.
Find my FB account and get a general idea where I grew up (just to make sure, although my name is weird enough for this not to matter). Go to genealogy website, search old phone books for my mom's name or just my last name, street name was Greenfield. Maybe you'll find my house and my aunts house, so two names to try. Done. Next.
Find my FB account, look thru old pix, here's me and my girlfriend in front of this 80s subcompact POS that being my first car which was a falling apart POS when I got it, but whatever. Ask an "old" guy to id the car. Its either a Dodge Omni or a Plymouth Horizon. And its red, if thats the question. Done. Next.
Its very unusual to have a "personal security question" that isn't answered by facebook, twitter, linkedin, any of the photo sites, classmates.com, etc.
