Which statement best uses formal language to present an issue to a school board in a formal email?

Answer

“Three traffic accidents occurred at the entrance to Westville High School in the last month alone.”

“You really should have a cop direct traffic at the school’s entrance before someone gets hurt.”

“Perhaps you’ve already considered speed bumps, but I think it’s high time to look into them again.”

“When traffic is not completely jammed, drivers zoom past the school entrance like wild people!”
