Correct answer
- AEl de largo alcance (luces largas).Main beam.
Under Article 100 of the General Traffic Regulations, at night, outside built-up areas, on roads that are not lit well enough and at more than 40 km/h, main beam is compulsory, unless it could dazzle other road users; in that case you switch to dipped headlights.
