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.

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.
