A police officer arrested a motorist for not wearing a seatbelt, a violation of the law of the state as well as a violation of a local misdemeanor ordinance. [Local law allowed either an arrest or the issuance of a citation

Under the circumstances, the Fourth Amendment requirement of reasonableness A) has been violated where the state and local law allowed an unreasonable amount of discretion to the police officer concerning whether to arrest or to issue a citation. B) has been violated because common sense would dictate that an arrest for a minor seatbelt violation must be construed as an unreasonable use of governmental authority. C) has not been violated where probable cause to arrest existed.

E) none of the above responses is a correct response.
