Amara: City dwellers who insist on driving solo during rush hour should pay a congestion fee—unless they can show a genuine need, such as transporting medical equipment. The worsening gridlock downtown proves that far too many drivers still choose cars over carpooling or public transit even when they could easily switch.

Jonas: Traffic downtown isn't just annoying; the sheer volume of private cars keeps air-quality alerts high and delays ambulance response times. Discounted monthly bus passes help, but unless we substantially cut the number of solo drivers who could ride transit instead, congestion will continue to undermine the city's wellbeing.

Amara's and Jonas's remarks provide the strongest support for the claim that they agree on which one of the following?

AMost solo drivers in the city center could switch to alternative transportation without undue hardship.
BLevying a congestion fee is the single most effective way to reduce downtown traffic.
CTourist vehicles are the primary cause of downtown gridlock.
DEven large reductions in private-car volume would fail to relieve downtown congestion.
EThe city should forbid non-resident drivers from entering the downtown core during rush hour.
