This must be from a standardized test. The wording is a little confusing, but I'd say it is a metaphor. Google says the definition of metaphor is "a figure of speech in which a word or phrase is applied to an object or action to which it is not literally applicable." This is saying something <em>is</em> something, or comparing two items without using "as" or "like". Have a good night/day!

A subjective statement refers to one's personal opinion, belief or conclusion which is not really based on facts. This particular option is one's personal opinion. The person opines that there will eventually be a major disaster in Old Home Days as a result of reckless drivers and unconcerned police. Actually, the passage never suggested or stated any prediction of major disaster by unconcerned police or reckless drivers. This is one's personal opinion about the passage.
