The state legislature has proposed a law that required all new cars sold in the state to be equipped with airbags for both front seat passengers. The auto industry has lobbied against the proposed law pointing out that the airbags would prevent only a small percentage of serious injuries because in most accidents, serious injuries can be avoided by the use of seatbelts.
Which of the following if true would most weaken the argument put forth by the auto industry?
A. The government has a duty to protect the welfare of its citizens.
B. The number of accidents per mile driven in the state is substantially higher than that for the rest of the nation.
C. The cost of equipping automobiles with airbags will be passed on to the consumer in the form of higher prices.
D. Most serious injuries occur when fron seat passengers are not wearing the seatbelts.
E. Because the law would apply only to new cars, it would take nearly a decade for teh majority of the state's cars to become equipped with airbsgs.
What is the best Option in this?
