  • Statement:

    Argument:
    I. Yes. It is a rule and rules should be followed strictly by all.
    II. No. Each individual knows how to protect his own life and it should be left to his discretion.
    III. No. It does not ensure safety as only the head is protected and rest of the body is not.

  • Options
  • A. None of these
  • B. Only I and III are strong
  • C. Only I and IV are strong
  • D. Only II and IV are strong

  • Correct Answer
  • Only I and IV are strong 

    Explanation

    Clearly, the rule has been devised or the safety of two-wheeler riders, as majority of two-wheeler accidents result in direct fall of the rider, leading to head injury and finally death. And the objective of a rule cannot be fulfilled until it is followed by all and this required strict enforcement. Thus, both I and IV hold strong, while III does not. Besides, it is the basic duty of the Government to look after the safety of the citizens and it ought not leave it to the safety of the citizens and it ought not leave it to the direction of the individuals. So, argument II does not hold strong.
