Would A be correct if 'may prove ' is replaced by 'will prove'
(A) isn't terrible, but (D) has a couple of advantages.
For starters, the phrase "resulting from" is a bit better than "from", since the financial uncertainties are an indirect consequence of the accident, not a direct or immediate consequence (e.g. debris from the accident). Does that make "from" wrong? No, but it gives us one vote in favor of (D).
Also, the word "deterring" doesn't really make sense as a modifier. X can deter Y (or Y can be deterred by X), but describing X as "deterring" without a clear and specific object is, at best, confusing. That gives us another vote in favor of (D).
Notice that we get "may prove" in choice (D) as well, so that's not really a factor. The differences above are enough to choose (D) instead of (A).
Remember, SC isn't about labelling individual sentences as wrong or right in a vacuum -- it's about picking the best one out of the five available options.
I hope that helps!
