Dear experts, I've got two questions
1) In the correct answer B, what is the construction behind the group "the owners fined". Why do they put "and" there without any comma, why don't they put "that" in the beginning of that phrase and insert "be" to put it this way ", and that the owners be fined"
2) I now E is the wrong answer because it does not follow subjunctive format. But the book says one point - "the use of "with" in this case is idiomatically incorrect". Please shed light on this matter, why is "with" idiomatically incorrect?
Thank you very much

||ism + sub. mood- B - I think there should be "BE" in second part of sentence ...rest all answer choice is clearly wrong...
In E - "Their" - Pronoun issue --can be point to officials / cars { logically it should be car}

i think in non underlined part "due to" usage is incorrect...it should be because of .
officials have ordered -- due to cant modify verb--
