PrepTest 92+, Section 1, Question 7
Transportation official: I reject the claim that the ruts in our city's roads are caused by large trucks rather than studded snow tires. There are many places that have as much large truck traffic as we have here and also have a comparable amount of snowfall, and only those few places that allow studded snow tires have ruts in their roads similar to ours. Clearly, studded snow tires are to blame.

Which one of the following, if true, most strengthens the transportation official's argument?
Large trucks are not allowed to have studded snow tires in many areas.
The number of ruts in the roads of the transportation official's city has declined recently as the amount of large truck traffic has diminished.
Most of the places that allow studded snow tires but have negligible large truck traffic have roads full of ruts similar to those in the transportation official's city.
Some cities with even more truck traffic than in the transportation official's city also have ruts in their roads.
Most places that have little snowfall do not allow the use of studded snow tires.
