  2. Yes, you breached the 60m people rule because 70m is inside the danger zone
  3. No, both distances exceed the required minimums (30m and 60m), so there is no breach
  4. Yes, you breached both rules simultaneously

Answer: C — No, both distances exceed the required minimums (30m and 60m), so there is no breach
