Show answer

Correct answer

  • BEl carril de la derecha normalmente.Normally the right-hand lane.
Explanation

Even though the road is in a built-up area, we apply the general rules for driving on a motorway (autopista) or dual carriageway (autovía) outside built-up areas. So we normally drive in the right-hand lane, and may use the other lanes when road conditions make it advisable.
