Show answer

Correct answer

  • ASí, es obligatorio en todas las vías.Yes, it is compulsory on all roads.
Explanation

The rear number plate must be lit whenever the lights must be on, at night or in tunnels, on any type of road. A number plate that cannot be read at night makes it impossible to identify the vehicle, so there is no exception for urban roads.
