The state of Arizona has just passed a mandatory seat belt law that will require anyone traveling in Arizona to put on his/her seat belt. Several travelers from other states that do not have such seat belt laws have brought suit challenging the constitutionality of the Arizona law as an undue burden on interstate commerce. What test will the court apply in reviewing the statute? a. the apportionment test b. the impairment test c. the balancing test d. none of the above

C). The balancing test.

Explanation:

The balancing test is elucidated as a judicial test that intends to examine the significance of various factors like competing/opposing interests or rights in a legal proceeding. Such a test allows extensive consideration in complex cases to reach a more worthy conclusion.

As per the question, the court would apply the 'balancing test' while reviewing this statute as it would assist in assessing the importance of distinct opposing factors('travelers from other states do not have seat belt laws' which challenge the Arizona law) apart from the bright line law. It would assist the court to have a deeper consideration of the matter and reach a valid conclusion. Hence, option C is the correct answer.
