Answer	Statement	Conclusion	Marks
Most Appropriate	This driver has a genuine reason for this negligence so let us not make life difficult for him and let him go after a strict warning.	Car driver seems to be honest as he use to ride the car in two shifts to educate his twin daughters, he also mentioned all the documents to the concerned officer, also told that he don't know about the situation, and will take care of it from next time, so officer should not, make his life difficult by taking a big fine amount from him, and should leave him on the strict warning.	2.5
Appropriate	The person appears to be needy, therefore, ask him to pay the reasonable amount as a fine and let him go as it is his first offense.	Choosing the second option will be also appropriate as in this case officer should take a reasonable time from him and let him go as it was his first time.	1.5
Less considerable	It is better to keep him in judicial custody for some time and allow him to go after warning.	Choosing this option will be less considerable as compared to other options as by keeping him in custody will make him realize not to make the mistake again and follow all the rules	1
Inappropriate	we should always fine the persons who violate the rules laid by the department as it is our duty to maintain the order.	This is inappropriate as all the people don't break the rules intentionally, this may sometimes happen unknowingly, so if such a case appears, one should not be strict on other people, and by forcefully fining him, it would not be a good one.	0
