Solution : The possible Venn diagram according to the given statements is as follows –

Let's analyse the conclusions –
Conclusion (I): No vehicle is a tractor – From the given Venn diagram, no tractor is a vehicle. Therefore, no vehicle is a tractor is also a true conclusion.
Conclusion (II): No tractor is a park – From the given Venn diagram, no park is a road and the tractor is a part of the road. Therefore, this conclusion is correct.
Conclusion (III): Some roads are tractors – From the given Venn diagram, the circle of the tractor is completely inside the circle of the road. Therefore, this conclusion is correct.
