Correct answer
- CPor delante, por detrás y lateralmente del vehículo.In front of, behind and to the sides of the vehicle.
The zone of uncertainty is the space around another vehicle into which it may move unexpectedly: braking, reversing, changing lane or swerving to one side. That is why it extends in front, behind and on both sides, and you should not stay in it longer than necessary, for example alongside the vehicle when overtaking.
