This is a weaken except. How does D weaken the argument?
I see why E is correct but I don't understand why D is incorrect.
Help! Thanks

Five years ago, in the event of a horrific traffic accident, the people involved had half as many emergency facilities at which they could be treated and possibly saved. Now, people who otherwise would have died in a traffic accident (possibly because there was no emergency facility nearby) could potentially be saved. The number of traffic fatalities may have declined because more people involved in traffic accidents are being saved at emergency facilities.
