The bus driver knew that I wasn’t breaking the law because these seats were already for colored people. Under Jim Crow law, the bus driver could ask you to give up your seat at any time but the problem was that [the number of seats for black and white people had to be even]. He drove the bus about four stops, and when we stopped, traffic patrol got on the bus and asked me to get up. I told him I paid my fare and said, “It’s my constitutional right!” The patrol officer yelled to the bus driver that he didn’t have any jurisdiction here.
A. Although Colvin didn't want to move, it was the law at that time that white passengers could choose any seat they liked.

C. The law made it clear that if a black minor argued with a white adult, the minor would be arrested.
D. The law stated that there had to be the same number of seats for black passengers as for white passengers.
