Difficulty: Medium
Correct Answer: if only Assumption II is implicit
Explanation:
Introduction / Context:
Public warnings paired with penalties function both as deterrents and enforcement notices. For such a warning to be credible, authorities must be able to enforce it. The assumption that drivers will ignore the warning is not necessary; the notice can be aimed at prevention, not merely punishment after noncompliance.
Given Data / Assumptions:
Concept / Approach:
The essential presupposition is enforceability (II). The notice must carry operational credibility. Whether some drivers ignore the warning is not a required assumption for putting up the warning; ideally, all would comply. Thus I is not necessary.
Step-by-Step Solution:
Verification / Alternative check:
Even if most drivers comply, the notice remains sensible; enforcement readiness preserves deterrence credibility.
Why Other Options Are Wrong:
Common Pitfalls:
Confusing the existence of a penalty with an assumption about widespread violation.
Final Answer:
Only Assumption II is implicit.
