Concerned at the increase in accident fatalities, Tennessee adopted a child-passenger protection law requiring the parents of children under four years of age to be restrained in a child safety seat.
(A) the parents of children under four years of age to be restrained in a child safety seat
(B) the restraint of parents of children under four years of age in a child safety seat
(C) that parents restrain children under four years of age in a child safety seat
(D) that children be restrained under four years of age in a child safety seat by their parents
(E) children to be restrained under four years of age by their parents in a child safety seat
how come C is the answer
subjunctive mood is not given in the sentence right?
if it were to be subjunctive it would be law require that ....
requiring is a modifier for law here isn't it?
I chose E because A, B wrong in terms of meaning. D is wrong cuz it is in subjunctive again and that too passive ( wordy)
Experts please shed some light
thanks in advance

Such rigidity in interpretation of grammar rules, might not be a great idea Pratishtha. Quite a few rules that are applicable to verbs, are also applicable to verb forms (such as Gerunds and participles).
For example, following usage of subjunctive is correct:
Students are demanding that an investigation committee be constituted.
Quote:
For one thing, "law requiring children" is not a great construct in E (law doesn't require children; law requires something from children/parents).
There are some teething modifier issues in E: "children to be restrained under four years of age by their parents" is not a great construct and neither is "parents in a child safety seat".
