Answer:

It upholds the 8th Amendment.

Explanation:

The Supreme Court usually confirms the eight amendment which states that punishments must be fair, cannot be cruel, and that fines that are extraordinarily large cannot be set. This is supported stating that although they are prisoners, overcrowding in penitentiaries is cruel and unusual as this conditions are not suitable for decent living standards.

lana [24]

It is true that aggressive driving is the use of a vehicle as a weapon or in a manner to physically assault a driver or their vehicle while on the road way.

It is very important for provider agencies to provide access to information service and benefits, even when the customers do not have proper proficiency in English.

When this is being carried out, it has to be done carefully as one has to avoid jargon when provider agencies provide information to the people who do not have a proficiency in English as there are chances of jargon i.e., a person might not understand certain key words said by the communicator.
