Solution
Verified by Toppr


Option C is the correct answer. 'An' and 'a' are indefinite articles used before nonspecific nouns starting with a vowel and a consonant respectively when we don't know what exactly we are referring to; in this case, 'accident', 'car' and 'tree' are nonspecific nouns. However, we use the definite article 'the' before the noun 'driver' because we are not referring to just any driver but the driver of the car which crashed into the tree. After this point, we use 'the' before the noun 'car' because we know what exactly we are referring to as is already mentioned before.
Options A, B and D are incorrect because they do not follow the correct sequence of articles as is explained above.
