Hey! These questions are like number games, where you are intentionally mislead to look at incomplete data. First line says that 80% of injured set didn’t wear the seatbelt which means if 100 people were injured, 80 didn’t had seatbelts on. Fair enough... But the caveat is what if the survey was conducted among 1000 people and out of the 900 safe people, only 50 wore seatbelt. Now can you confidently say that if you don’t wear a seatbelt, your injury chances would be low? Like the question hasn’t provided any details on the remaining subset. And to confidently prove the conclusion, it would be good to know if atleast 20% of the other group was wearing the seatbelt or not? - so you can generalise your finding

These are like mathematical questions where you are looking to know exact numbers for the sub groups in discussion. And A directly falls in that category.

Problem with D is that, it is a weakener like the example I mentioned above but the question is asking you to find a statement which strengthens your argument.

Good Explainination !!
Currently, It is hard for me to go into that deep of logical reasoning with the time constrain in the exam. I also shortlisted A and D and finally chose D as my answer. I guess more practise would help improve the reasoning in the limited time available

Roushan, take a look at the conclusion: it says that wearing a seatbelt reduces the risk of severe injury.
Now, as a smart test-taker, your job is to pause and think—wait, why should I believe that? 🤔

Remember, we’re not allowed to bring in outside knowledge (even if common sense is screaming at us). So we have to rely only on what the argument gives us.

Let’s check the premise: it says that 80% of severely injured drivers weren’t wearing seatbelts.

Okay... but so what? 😄
There’s a missing link here! Just because most injured people didn’t wear seatbelts doesn’t automatically prove that wearing one protects you. The argument skipped a step.
And that’s where you come in—to rescue the argument and make it look smart.

The correct answer (Option A) fills this gap by showing that people who wear seatbelts have a higher chance of avoiding severe injury (more than 20%) compared to those who don’t (around 20%).

Now that connects the dots properly and makes the conclusion actually believable.
