In response to Robert’s claim that the city of Crownsbury should install speed bumps on streets to slow down speeding drivers, Sheila concludes that this approach is a bad idea. To support her claim, Sheila points out that speeding drivers can easily lose control when hitting a speed bump.

Sheila counters the position held by Robert. She does this by showing Robert’s solution to a given problem could produce undesirable consequences.

Sheila does not deny the seriousness of the problem Robert is addressing. Instead, she is showing that Robert’s solution could create more problems.

The solution Robert advocates for is installing speed bumps on certain streets. The undesirable effect Sheila points out is speeding drivers losing control of their vehicles when driving over speed bumps.

Sheila does not defend a solution different from the one Robert proposes. She only addresses Robert’s proposed solution and argues that his solution also has the potential to be dangerous.

Sheila does not concede that Robert’s solution would be effective. In fact, it is implied she thinks Robert’s solution would be ineffective if speeding drivers were to hit speed bumps.

Sheila does not claim that Robert’s proposal would have no effect on the problem. In fact, she thinks Robert’s proposal would have an adverse effect on the problem.
