Correct answer
- ADesistir del adelantamiento, reducir la velocidad y volver a su carril sin obstaculizar.Abandon the overtaking, slow down and return to their lane without getting in anyone's way.
Under Article 85.2 of the General Traffic Regulations (RGC), if after starting to overtake circumstances arise that may make it difficult to finish without risk, you must quickly slow down, return to your own lane and warn those behind with the required signals, without braking sharply.
