Adam,
Another error, unfortunately.
The correct text for (D) is:
"It is clear that most people in Highland County drive sedans, since most people who commute to work drive sedans and most people in Highland County commute to work."
We'll have this updated ASAP.
Please keep the questions coming.

Adam,
We certainly don't want to give you that impression, but it's undeniable that you've come across multiple mistakes.
We have tried our utmost to ensure that the content you're getting from us is of high quality, but we must admit we have not read through and answered all 2,000+ questions in the App. And unfortunately, some of the original files that we received from LSAC were in poor condition. We've tried to weed out the content that has missing text, etc. But as your experience has made clear, we haven't been able to cull 100% of the chaff.
What we can assure you is this: if you notice an issue, we'll do our best to fix it in short order.
We appreciate your understanding.
