Show answer
Correct answer
- CPor su derechaOn their right
Explanation
As a general rule, vehicles travel on the right of the carriageway and as close as possible to its edge, keeping enough side distance to pass oncoming vehicles safely (Article 29.1 of the General Traffic Regulations). Driving on the left or on the markings between lanes is not correct.
