CorrectNot quiteAnswer D

Correct answer: D

Explanation

  1. Q has the subject and the verb, and "fined" needs whom: S "the driver who had".

  2. "Had" needs a past form: R "parked his truck in the middle", and "middle" needs "of" and a place: P.

  3. So the order is QSRP: "The traffic police fined the driver who had parked his truck in the middle of the busy road."

Worth noting

QRSP puts "parked his truck in the middle" right after "fined", which leaves "the driver who had" with no verb.
