To determine which sentence does not contain any errors, we need to analyze the usage of possessive pronouns and plural forms.
In sentence A, "The officers's car is parked in the driveway," there is an error. The possessive pronoun "officers's" should be written as "officers'," indicating that the car belongs to multiple officers.
In sentence B, "The officers' car is parked in the driveway," there are no errors. The apostrophe is correctly placed after "officers" to indicate possession by multiple officers.
In sentence C, "The officers car is parked in the driveway," there is an error. The possessive pronoun "officers" is missing the apostrophe, which implies that the car belongs to officers in general, rather than a specific group of officers.
Therefore, the correct sentence is B: "The officers' car is parked in the driveway," as it accurately reflects possession by multiple officers without any errors in punctuation.
