In general, this is true, but what about this sentence:

It is going to rain soon.

Do we have a pronoun error there?

My biggest problem with D is that we need to use the adverb "easily" to modify the action of getting in and out. D uses "easier", which is an adjective and cannot modify a verb.

So with D, the sentence would read:

Minivans make it easier for passengers when getting in and out

At best it is ambiguous whether getting in and out refers to Minivans or passengers; at worst, it refers to Minivans, similar to:

I remember to close the door when getting in. (Not a perfect sentence, but hopefully conveys the idea).

Hi Bill,

thanks for the clarification.I have one more question. Is it correct to use when with get or an infinitive with get.I mean the below interpretation is right or wrong

make it easier for passengers to get in and out

if the sentence were like this then whether this choice would be correct or wrong

we use IT in two scenarios
1. Postpone infinite subjects
eg "It is going to rain soon" .. the example bill gave us

2. Postpone That clause
It was good that she did not come
