Who attacked you?

How did the accident happen?
Is it true the car hit the truck after running the red light?

The correct answer is: Is it true the car hit the truck after running the red light?

"D. Is it true the car hit the truck after running the red light?" is a closed question because it necessitates a binary response, generally a "yes" or "no". Closed questions are formulated specifically to require a brief, concise response. These types of questions don't encourage a discussion nor do they demand further details, unlike open-ended inquiries. This is why, according to Ontario Security Guard practice, "D. Is it true the car hit the truck after running the red light?" is a closed question because it only permits a simple affirmative or negative response.
