Correct answer

  • ARecorriendo el mínimo necesario para salir.Travelling the minimum distance needed to get out.
Explanation

In a dead-end street, the General Traffic Regulations (RGC) state that the driver must travel the minimum distance necessary to get out of it, without making a U-turn, as this is not allowed. This is because making a U-turn on roads where it cannot be done may be a risk to other road users. Therefore, the correct answer is 'travelling the minimum necessary to be able to get out'.
