Show answer

Correct answer

  • BEn las vías urbanas.On roads in built-up areas.
Explanation

In built-up areas, where there are more pedestrians, the chance of being hit is much higher. Injuries are more serious on roads outside built-up areas, because vehicles travel faster there. Pedestrians are not allowed on motorways and dual carriageways.
