Which statement correctly describes a safe haven?

Answer options

Why

Only an area designated for this purpose, typically by local officials, counts as a safe haven for leaving an explosives-laden vehicle unattended. Permission from a property owner or a rest area reserved for certain drivers does not make a place a safe haven.
