Show answer

Correct answer

  • BPor la derecha del tranvía necesariamenteOn the right of the tram, necessarily.
Explanation

As a general rule, overtaking is done on the left, except: vehicles that are signalling that they intend to turn left or stop on that side; in built-up areas, on roads with more than one lane in the same direction marked by longitudinal lines; on two-way roads, trams running in the middle of the carriageway.
