Correct answer

  • ACon las señales ópticas (destellos) y acústicas.With light signals (flashes) and sound signals.

Outside built-up areas we may signal our intention to overtake with the horn or with light signals, by flashing between main beam and dipped headlights. In built-up areas, however, we may only use light signals.
