PrepTest 45, Section 2, Question 15

Difficulty: 
Passage
Game

At the request of Grove Park residents, speed bumps were installed on all streets in their neighborhood. However, although through traffic does cause noise and congestion in Grove Park, this remedy is blatantly unfair. The neighborhood is not a private community, and its streets were built with public funds, and thus all drivers have the right to use them whenever they please.

Question
15

The reasoning in the argument is most vulnerable to criticism on the grounds that it

ignores the possibility that speed bumps may not reduce the speeds at which drivers drive through the neighborhood

neglects the possibility that drivers frequently drive through the neighborhood at high speeds

provides no evidence that drivers have complained about the new speed bumps in the neighborhood

contains the tacit assumption that residents of neighborhoods should have the right to restrict traffic through their communities

presumes, without providing justification, that speed bumps do prevent drivers from using the roads on which the bumps are found
