It has been determined that 5% of drivers checked at a road stop show traces of alcohol and 10% of drivers checked don't wear seat belts. In addition, it has been observed that two infractions are independent from one another. If an officer stops five drivers at random, then the probability that at least one of the drivers has committed at least one of the two offenses is: O 0.1314 O 0.5430 O 0.0232 O 0.0223
