Identifying Dangling Modifiers
In the following sentence, identify the dangling modifier and why it is wrong.
Since getting that new job out of town, my gas bills have doubled and my car is falling apart.
A
'And my car is falling apart,' because it incorrectly adds a second clause to the modifier.
B
'Gas bills' and 'my car,' because they incorrectly serve as subject nouns in the sentence.
