McBride: The proposed new fuel efficiency standards, if implemented, will
discourage the manufacture of full-size cars. This prospect is troubling because
when a subcompact and a full-size car collide, the people in the subcompact
are more likely to be seriously injured than if theirs had also been a full-size car.
The new fuel efficiency standards should therefore be opposed.
Leggett: But whenever any two cars collide, it is more likely that someone
will be seriously injured if one of the cars is a full-size car than if neither of the
cars is full-size. Thus, the new fuel efficiency standards should be supported
precisely because they discourage the manufacture of full-size cars.
McBride’s and Leggett’s statements commit them to disagreeing about the
truth of which one of the following?
(A) The manufacture of full-size cars should be discouraged.
(B) Fuel conservation is less important than safety in the event of a
collision.
(C) When a full-size car and a subcompact car collide, the occupants of the
full-size car are less likely than the occupants of the subcompact car to
the seriously injured.
(D) Reducing the number of full-size cars on the highway will reduce the
frequency of collisions between automobiles.
(E) The new fuel-efficiency standards will encourage automobile
manufacturers to build more subcompact cars.
Kudos for explanation.
