E Correct answer
Explanation

Course of action I follows because an expert group inspection is a logical, measured response to identify and address safety issues in school buses without being overly drastic. Course of action II also follows because suspending all licenses until proper checks are completed prevents unsafe buses from operating. Both actions are practical, reasonable measures to prevent future accidents.
