Correct answer

  • CReducir la velocidad e incluso detenernos si fuese necesario.Reduce speed and even stop if necessary.
Explanation

Under Article 102 of the General Traffic Regulations, a dazzled driver must reduce speed as much as necessary, even stopping, so as not to run into vehicles or pedestrians. Switching on the main beam in response only makes the danger worse.
