Correct answer
- AEl vehículo que tenga que retroceder una menor distancia.The vehicle that has to reverse the shorter distance.
On a narrow stretch with no signs, the vehicle that entered first goes first; if in doubt, the one that finds it harder to manoeuvre, following the order in Article 62.1 of the General Traffic Regulations. Between vehicles of the same type, right of way goes to the one that would have to reverse the longer distance, so the one that has to reverse less gives way.
