In a 2015 opinion, the supreme court struck down state bans on same-sex marriages and refusals to recognize legal same-sex marriage performed in other states.

After Massachusetts became the first state to legalize same-sex unions in 2003, equality for same-sex marriage had a sharp increase. However, until the Obergefell v. Hodges ruling by the U.S. Supreme Court in 2015, which guaranteed same-sex marriage rights in every state, there was no widespread acceptance of same-sex marriage rights. The Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment was mentioned by the Supreme Court in support of its ruling that gay couples have the right to marry under the United States Constitution.

The Defense of Marriage Act's crucial components were struck down by the Court in 2013, which was when it first addressed the subject of same-sex marriage (DOMA). The Supreme Court's rulings on same-sex marriage are summarized below, with a focus on the cases that ultimately resulted in the famous Obergefell ruling.

Last January, in an attempt to lower the number of traffic fatalities, the state legislature passed its "Click It or Ticket" law
Dvinal [7]

Answer:

The inference that is best supported by the passage is: A. Prior to the "Click it or Ticket" law, motorist could not be stopped simply for not waring a seatbelt."

Explanation:

In the passage is very clear that in the new law motorist can be now pulled over and ticketed for not wearing seatbelts (later in the passage it implies that's the reason why lawyers and citizens' gorups are protesting), which implies that before the state legislature passed the law this was not a reason to be pulled over even though this is not stated in the passage, the entire text circles around the novelty of  pulling over motorist for not wearing seatbelt, therefore the best option is A especially because that is the main idea of the text.
