A housing society was surveyed by a commuter company last year, and the results indicated that most residents supported the concept of carpooling. The residents believed that carpooling would offer significant savings on fuel and time. Based on this positive feedback, the recommendation was made to adopt carpooling for a more efficient and cost-effective commuting solution.
Which of the following, if true, would most strengthen the argument in favor of adopting carpooling?
A. Though the long distances between their workplaces force the members of the carpool to leave their homes early, they are adequately compensated by the fuel savings.
B. Fuel costs are expected to rise significantly and continuously in the near future.
C. By participating in the carpool, the residents contribute their mite towards reducing pollution and traffic congestion.
D. The government is likely to allow carpools to use bus-lanes on busy trunk roads.
E. Technical issues such as flat tires have not significantly affected the popularity of carpools among residents.

The residents believe that carpooling would offer dual benefits of fuel and time savings. Option A would mean time savings is infringed upon so it does not strengthen the argument in my opinion.
