Goldman always obeyed traffic laws because he did not want to get a ticket.

Answer 1

B. Laney, a 21-year-old woman, did not drink alcoholic beverages because her religion prohibited it.

Step-by-step explanation:

Being ethical means people conforming to accept the moral standards. It is to be in accordance with the standards or the rules of right conduct or principles of morality.

And legal right is the basic right that the law provides the citizen of country.

In the context, a 21 year woman who has the legal right to buy and consume alcoholic beverages according to the law did not drink alcohol because she thinks that it is not morally correct to drink alcohol or other alcoholic beverages as her religion did not allow to drink. So she gave her legal right to drink alcohol and was being ethical.
