Correct answer
- AEl turismo.The car.
On a very narrow stretch of road with no priority signs, the vehicle that entered first has right of way. If it is not clear who entered first, the vehicle that has more difficulty manoeuvring has right of way. The order of priority between the different types of vehicles when one of them has to reverse is: 1. Special vehicles and special transport that exceed the permitted masses or dimensions. 2. Combinations of vehicles, except those in point 4. 3. Animal-drawn vehicles. 4. Cars towing trailers with a MAM of up to 750 kg, and motorhomes. 5. Vehicles for the public transport of passengers (buses). 6. Lorries, tractor units and vans. 7. Cars and car-derived vehicles. 8. Special vehicles that do not exceed the permitted masses or dimensions, quadricycles and light quadricycles. 9. Three-wheeled vehicles, motorcycles with sidecars and three-wheeled mopeds. 10. Motorcycles, two-wheeled mopeds and bicycles. When the vehicles are of the same type, or of a type not listed above, right of way goes to the one that would have to reverse a longer distance and, if that is equal, to the one with the greater width, length or maximum authorised mass.
