Correct answer: D. A driver-operated windshield wiper and a rear-view mirror or mirrors

Section 66(1) requires "a device for cleaning rain, snow and other moisture from the windshield so constructed as to be controlled or operated by the driver" (a driver-operated windshield wiper) and "a mirror or mirrors securely attached to the vehicle" giving the driver a clear view of the roadway behind. Both are named specifically, not just implied by general roadworthiness.
