Every row has 3 lines, one full-length line rotating the same direction throughout, and centered on the middle point, and two other shorter lines centered at specific points. Both of these shorter lines independently rotate in the same direction throughout.
It is reasonable to assume that consistency of direction ranks higher than actual direction when forming rules. Both shorter lines in the top two rows rotate consistently CW. It just so happens that in the bottom row, one shorter line moves consistently CCW. The only other possible answer is 'D', however that would imply that in addition to one line breaking with the CW tradition, both shorter lines reverse their directions.
To elaborate a little more on the consistency issue above: One of the shorter lines moves CCW in the bottom row. This is contrary to expectation but the move is undeniable. Therefore the only rule that can be applied thereon is that of consistency of direction, rather than the double rule of consistency of direction AND actual direction.
Questions are reviewed in order to eliminate the trickiness element. Since 53% of visitors answered correctly, there is less evidence to suggest that this element is evident here. (20% answered 'D')
Thank you for your comments, there is an ongoing discussion for all questions and your views are always appreciated and helpful.
ONE 'leg' rotating anticlockwise, through the 'bottom row pattern', is 'irrationally INCONSISTENT' with the otherwise 'ALL clockwise rotation' conformity.
In each row there is a long rod and two small rods. They "rotate" one pip at a time each column you move to the right.
And the top left they just overlap with each other.
However in the bottom row is the only one where any of the pieces rotate counterclockwise. For some reason one of the small rods rotates counterclockwise since question, so it's sort of breaks the pattern. I wouldn't recommend having a pattern recognition test where the row you're trying to solve breaks part of the pattern that the rest of the question held true.

Imagine elastic string being rotated about their center an amount of "degrees". That is the rule applied to the strings that seem small. You can spot the center by seeing the same center for each string at each picture. For example, in column 1, the small strings in figure 1 do not seem to appear, but that is because that are in a position where they are coherent to the large string. In figure 2 of column 1, you see the 2 small strings, because they are rotated about their center, and in the 3rd figure of column 1, you see that the same center appears in all figures. The larger string is rotating about the middle of each figure. With this, try to find the pattern of where the centers are for each string of each figure.

Why does the bottom half line rotate irregularly?
Every row has 3 lines, one full-length line rotating the same direction throughout, and centered on the middle point, and two other shorter lines centered at specific points. Both of these shorter lines independently rotate in the same direction throughout.

This seems to be a bad question...

And the top left they just overlap with each other.
However in the bottom row is the only one where any of the pieces rotate counterclockwise.

correct answer is C
