ok I know that answer, but because of the Code of Conduct, I can't just say it so let me help you eliminate some choices.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i dont think it is c

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It can't be D, because that is only a section of people, also it would be biased because they would all probably want to raise it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So it's not D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok so it is either a or b

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It can't be C because that's too broad, and we don't know that all the citizens drive

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and finally, It can't be B because that's only for truck drivers, you are talking about ALL kinds of cars AND trucks, so it would be unwise to ask only truck drivers.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok so it would be a

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes ;)
