I think the moral of the story is that you get bad luck or karma if you’re greedy.
"You will be more aware of your speed when driving" is the desired effect of the negative incentive of the speeding ticket upon future driving.
Answer: Option B
<u>Explanation:</u>
Motivation is the act of inducing a person to act or think in a particular manner. It could be positive or negative. In this context, the speeding ticket is a negative motivation as it induces a person to act in a particular way i.e., not over speeding and being alert and aware of the speed when one is driving the vehicle. Here, the speeding ticket induces a person to act in a particular way. So, the option B statement stands for the desired effects.
The answer is china :) hope this helps
