Editorialist: Drivers with a large number of demerit points who additionally have been convicted of a serious
driving-related offense should either be sentenced to jail or be forced to receive driver reeducation, since to do
otherwise would be to allow a crime to go unpunished. Only if such drivers are likely to be made more responsible
drivers should driver re-education be recommended for them. Unfortunately, it is always almost impossible to
make drivers with a large number of demerit points more responsible drivers. If the editorialist’s statements are
true, they provide the most support for which one of the following?
A. Drivers with a large number of demerit points who have been convicted of a serious driving-related offense should
be sent to jail.
B. Driver re-education offers the best chance of making drivers with a large number of demerit points responsible
drivers.
C. Driver re-education is not a harsh enough punishment for anyone convicted of a serious driving-related offense
who has also accumulated a large number of demerit points.
D. Driver re-education should not be recommended for those who have committed no serious driving-related offenses.
E. Drivers with a large number of demerit points but no conviction for a serious driving-related offense should receive
driver re-education rather than jail.
