Correct answer

  • ACon el vehículo detenido en una carretera recta.With the vehicle stationary on a straight road.
Explanation

Mirrors are adjusted before setting off, with the vehicle stationary and, if possible, on a straight, level stretch, once you are sitting in the driving position. Doing it while moving is distracting and makes you take your eyes off the road; also, on a straight road you can check the rear field of vision better.
