Solution
The correct option is B NO CHANGE
Here, we are presenting two contrasting ideas/notions: driving fast and driving safely. It is unusual to drive fast 'and' safely at the same time. This rules out option A. When we wish to join two contrasting ideas/statements, we use adversative coordinating conjunctions such as but, nevertheless, however, whereas, etc. Hence, the right answer is option D.
