Correct answer
- CSiempre, incluso de día.Always, even during the day.
Every vehicle driving between sunset and sunrise, in weather or environmental conditions that greatly reduce visibility, and through tunnels, underpasses or stretches of road covered by the ‘tunnel’ sign, must have its sidelights on. Whenever sidelights are compulsory while the vehicle is moving, dipped headlights, main beam or fog lights must also be used (you cannot drive with sidelights alone; they must always go with other lights). If the vehicle is more than 2.10 metres wide, the end-outline marker lights come on automatically when the sidelights are switched on.
