Show answer
Correct answer
- CAl menos el de cruce.At least dipped headlights.
At night, outside built-up areas and on roads without enough lighting, main beam is only compulsory above 40 km/h (Article 100 of the General Traffic Regulations). At 40 km/h or less, dipped headlights are enough, although main beam may be used if it does not dazzle anyone; that is why at least dipped headlights are required.
