Correct answer

  • CCon el vehículo inmovilizado en terreno llano y en un tramo recto.With the vehicle stationary, on flat ground and on a straight stretch.
Explanation

The mirrors are adjusted before moving off, with the vehicle stopped on flat ground and on a straight stretch, and with you already sitting in the driving position. Doing it while moving is distracting and dangerous, and on a slope or bend the view of the road gives a false reference.
