The correct answer would be option C, Young people need to be able to transport themselves to work and school.

Explanation:

Raising the minimum age for driving means that there should be an increase in the limit of the age that allows a person to have a licence and drive. A person is usually allowed to get licence at the age of 18. Argument against the raise of the driving age means that a person should not be allowed to drive at 18, rather this age limit should be increased. But the argument which is against this statement would be that young people need to be able to transport themselves to work and school. This statement states that young people should have the licence so that they can move around on their own on their vehicles. This statement argues that the minimum age for driving should not be raised.
