Correct answer

  • BSí, cuando no lo prohíban otras señales.Yes, when other signs do not prohibit it.
Explanation

Lanes opened in the opposite direction to normal to keep traffic flowing may only be used by motorcycles, with or without a sidecar, and cars. However, when they are opened because of roadworks, all vehicles allowed on that road may use them, including cars with trailers, unless this is expressly prohibited.
