Correct answer
- CNo, por la presencia de la señal que prohíbe adelantar.No, because of the sign that prohibits overtaking.
Explanation
U-turns are prohibited on stretches where overtaking is prohibited, unless the U-turn is expressly authorised (Article 79.1 of the General Traffic Regulations). Here the sign prohibits overtaking, so you may not make a U-turn either.
