Correct answer
- AObliga en todo caso a encender la luz de cruce.Always requires you to switch on the dipped headlights.
Vehicles travelling in a lane opened in the opposite direction to the usual one must always have at least the dipped headlights on, both by day and by night; this is compulsory. The maximum speed that may not be exceeded in these lanes is 80 kilometres per hour, and if you are travelling in this lane you may not move sideways into the lane or lanes for the normal direction of traffic, not even to overtake other vehicles.
