Correct answer

  • CCuando no tenga visibilidad suficiente de la parte delantera de la vía.When you do not have enough visibility of the road ahead.
Explanation

You can overtake behind another vehicle that is also overtaking, but Article 87 of the General Traffic Regulations (RGC) prohibits it when that vehicle's size prevents you from seeing the road ahead. Without enough visibility, you cannot overtake or abandon the manoeuvre safely.
