Correct answer: Option C

The 1970s, the oil crisis of 1973 (and a second shock in 1979), triggered by massive oil price rises after the OPEC embargo, threw Denmark into a multi-year economic crisis with soaring unemployment, inflation and 'car-free Sundays'. The traps swap in other hard decades: the 1930s crisis was real but was triggered by the Wall Street crash of 1929, not oil; the 1950s had shortages but no oil-triggered crisis. Memory hook: oil crisis = 1973 = the 70s decade of empty motorways.
