Correct answer
- BLas dos de posición del lado correspondiente a la calzada o las de estacionamiento.The two position lights on the carriageway side, or the parking lights.
When a vehicle is parked on a poorly lit travesía, the parking lights must always be switched on or, if the vehicle does not have them, the position lights. Hazard warning lights are only used in an emergency. A travesía is the stretch of road that runs through a built-up area, so it is important for vehicles to be easy to see if the road is not well lit.
