The driver didn't stop at the light and didn't () the law.

• A. Obey
• B. Break
• C. Ignore
• D. Follow

Answer: (A)

Understanding how to express compliance with laws and traffic rules is what this sentence tests. The natural way to say someone didn’t conform to legal rules is to say they didn’t obey the law. Obey carries a strong sense of following rules and is the standard pairing with “the law” and with traffic signals, so “didn’t obey the law” clearly communicates noncompliance after not stopping at the light.

The other options don’t fit as cleanly. Break would imply committing a violation, which clashes with the idea of not stopping at the light in the same clause. Ignore would shift the nuance toward deliberately disregarding rules, which isn’t as natural here. Follow is close in meaning, but obey is the more fixed and idiomatic collocation with “the law,” making it the best choice.
