1) What if pollution got so bad that the private ownership of cars was banned - what would happen?
2) What if pollution got so bad that the private ownership of cars would / could be banned - what would happen?
Is it possible to use "would/could" in the complex "if-clause" like in the 2nd sentence? Or only the past forms of verbs are correct (sentence # 1)?
Thank you in advance for your answer.
