Correct answer

  • CDebe llevar instalados dos espejos retrovisores exteriores, uno a cada lado del vehículo.You must have two exterior mirrors fitted, one on each side of the vehicle.
Explanation

According to the General Traffic Regulations, vehicles must have at least two mirrors to guarantee proper visibility while driving. If the luggage or load blocks visibility through the interior mirror, the driver must use at least two exterior mirrors (one on each side). This makes sure the driver has a safe, wide view of the road and other vehicles, which is essential to avoid accidents.
