Answer: В. Seatbelt laws are an acceptable part of a free society.

Step-by-step explanation:

Neither of these authors have a problem with seatbelts. Indeed, both of them agree that seatbelts are a good thing and that they both save lives and reduce injuries from accidents which translates to lower costs health wise.

They however differ in one key area, seatbelt laws. One of them wants seatbelt laws repealed because they claim it infringes on a person's freedom to make their own decisions and the other believes that seatbelt laws are an acceptable part of a free society because they can save lives and so should not be left to the whims of people.
