Question

Excerpt from Sacramento Valley Transportation Sacramento History Online 7 In the 1890s the first commercial automobiles began to arrive in Sacramento. By 1905, twenty-seven automobiles were registered in Sacramento County. By 1910, seven hundred more were registered, and by July 1911, in what can only be called “Auto Frenzy," Sacramentans were buying seventy-five autos per day. Automobiles alone could not make a significant difference. A network of paved roads was essential. Three bridges had to cross the American River between Sacramento and Fair Oaks. Perhaps the best symbol of this growing network would be the completion of the Yolo Causeway in 1916. Which is an example of a PRIMARY source that could be used to verify the information in section 7? A) a record from Sacramento County B) this article is a primary source C) a textbook on California history D) a PBS special on Western transportation

A) A record from Sacramento County

Step-by-step explanation:

A primary source is a source from someone that was there at the time of the event. Only the record from Sacramento county would have been written by someone who was there and witnessed it first hand.
