Correct answer

  • ANos acercaremos al borde derecho de la calzada.Move over to the right-hand edge of the carriageway.
Explanation

Under Article 86.1 of the General Traffic Regulations (RGC), when another vehicle wants to overtake us, we must keep close to the right-hand edge of the carriageway. Increasing speed is prohibited; we only need to slow down if a dangerous situation arises once the manoeuvre has started.
