«El testigo declaró que el conductor no _____ a gran velocidad».

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: C. circulaba

Analysis: Reported speech with verbs of communication in past ('declaró que') takes imperfect indicative ('circulaba') for factual description. Answer: circulaba. Why not the others: 'circule' is present subjunctive; 'circulara' and 'circulase' are imperfect subjunctive.
