Correct answer

  • Acuando aprecie que puede deslumbrar a cualquier usuario de la vía.when you notice that you could dazzle any road user.
Explanation

Using main beam is prohibited when there is a chance of dazzling other drivers or users of the same road or of any other transport route, whether oncoming or drivers of vehicles travelling in the same direction. On roads in built-up areas, main beam is completely prohibited because we could dazzle other road users, such as pedestrians.
