Answer:

The answer is option (A) negative sanction

Step-by-step explanation:

Negative sanctions are penalties or punishments that are used to enforce obedience or compliance with the law or rules and regulations governing conduct in a particular setting e.g parking and smoking in designated areas.

Teresa broke the rules and regulations of driving on a particular road by over speeding. Hence, she was caught and issued the penalty or punishment of a $250 ticket. Car drivers can also be negatively sanctioned for driving with a broken windscreen or without side mirrors while motorcyclists can receive negative sanctions for riding without helmets.
