Correct answer

  • BSí, cuando la marca no separe los dos sentidos de circulación.Yes, when the marking does not separate the two directions of traffic.
Explanation

A continuous line must not be crossed or driven on, and when it separates the two directions of traffic you must not drive to its left either. If the line does not separate directions, for example between two lanes in the same direction, you may drive to its left.
