Answer:
b. She missed her plane.
Explanation:
At the start of the passage, we read that Karen was in a hurry. She drove really fast <em>"zoomed ahead and [.....] zagged past a motorbike"</em>. This is also supported by the use of the words "<em>darted</em>", "<em>whipping</em>", "<em>ran through the lot, up the escalator and into the terminal</em>".
