Show answer

Correct answer

  • AEl carril más a la derecha.The right-hand lane.
Explanation

Outside built-up areas, on carriageways with more than one lane in the same direction, you normally drive in the right-hand lane and use the others when traffic or road conditions make it advisable (Article 31.1 of the General Traffic Regulations). Going faster than the speed shown does not oblige you to change lanes.
