With competitive cycling increasing in popularity, the appearance of cyclists on roads used by motor vehicles has become more commonplace. The Road Safety Association announced that in the last year, 4 deaths and 67 injuries were caused by collisions between cyclists and motor vehicles. None of these cases involved driving under the influence of inebriating substances, the most frequent cause of accidents. It is clear that roads should be organized in a way that will allow both motor vehicles and cyclists to use them simultaneously and safely.
Which of the following, if true, most strengthens the author's conclusion?
A. The building and renovating of roads is an extremely costly process involving the input of a wide range of professionals.
B. Inebriating substances not only result in poorer control of a vehicle but also in a delayed reaction time to events that may occur.
C. Cycling parks should be created to allow enthusiasts to practice their sport safely.
D. Wearing protective gear, such as a helmet, reduces the risk of serious injury and in some countries is provided by governments at no expense.
E. A system using electronic lighting and protective barriers that was implemented in Norway, reduced incidents of collisions between vehicles and cyclists by 28%.
