2. Carmelo gets his business license by taking courses, so "obtain" (get) is correct.
3. The driver broke the law (car windows blacked out), so "violation" (breaking law) is right.
4. The path to school with twists is a "route" (path).
5. Lack of "communication" causes friendship end (common reason for friendship issues).

12. (Assuming the options for 12 are related to experience/incident, but since options are cut off, if we assume common options like "experience", but based on context, likely related to a bad experience at Urban Air, so if options include "experience", that would be the answer. But as per given, we can note the context: Wyatt had a bad time (like getting sick) at Urban Air, so the vocabulary word would relate to that experience, e.g., if options were like "experience", "incident", etc.)
