The sentence that contains a comma splice is:
"I stayed late at school, I missed my ride."
A comma splice occurs when two independent clauses are joined by just a comma without an appropriate conjunction. In this case, the two clauses "I stayed late at school" and "I missed my ride" are both independent and should be joined with a coordinating conjunction or separated into two sentences.
"I stayed late at school, I missed my ride."
