Correct answer

  • CEl izquierdo.The left.
Explanation

Motorcycles that cannot exceed 100 km/h are only required to have one exterior mirror, and it must be on the left-hand side, from where you watch vehicles that are overtaking. For them the right-hand mirror is optional; it is compulsory only on motorcycles that exceed that speed.
