Show answer
Correct answer
- BPor el arcén.On the hard shoulder.

Under Article 36 of the General Traffic Regulations, vehicles following cyclists, like cycles themselves, must use the hard shoulder on their right if it is usable and wide enough. Only if it is not do they use the part of the carriageway that is strictly necessary.
