The answer is: B. question the police officer and challenge the evidence against the state

The main duty of defendants in a trial is to defend the accused from potential charges that brought by his/her oppositions. Challenging the evidence from the police/state usually being done to make that evidences become obsolete. If the defendants able to do this, the juries would see the defendant more favorably.
