The first incorrectly punctuated sentence is D. When you are listing items, each of the elements in the coordination is separated by a comma and the last one is introduced by <em>and. </em> In this case, there isn't a comma between the VP "washed his hair" and "brushed his teeth".  The punctuation rule indicates that in a list with three or more items, you should separate the items with commas. Then you should use<em> and</em> only before the last item in the list, and always follow the last item with the proper punctuation when the list ends the sentence.

The second sentence that is incorrectly punctuated is A.  This has to do with the type of adjectives involved in. The comma rule comes down to the difference between two kinds of adjectives: coordinate adjectives and cumulative adjectives.  The first ones are adjectives in a row that modify the noun they follow separately.  If this were the case, you could rearrange the order of the adjectives: *Daniel received two parking expensive tickets.

On the contrary, cumulative adjectives, don’t separately modify the noun that follows even though they are all stacked up before the noun too. That is, the adjective right before the noun pairs with the noun as a unit, and then the adjective before that unit modifies that unit. In the example, "parking" modifies "tickets", they form a unit which is modified by "expensive".  Cumulative adjectives are not separated by commas.
