Once again, no one is sure just how it happened or whose fault it was. The driver of the car was put in jail. Poor Mr. Bliss became the first person to die in a car accident.We can conclude that accidents involving cars ____.( )A. happened most often in New York CityB. do not happen as often as they did in the early days of the autoC. have killed more people since Mister Bliss was killedD. were always the driver's fault
