Correct answer

  • BNo, está demasiado alejado.No, they are too far away.
Explanation

The arms should be slightly bent when holding the steering wheel. The driver in the picture has set the seat too far from the steering wheel, so their arms are completely straight. Keeping the arms slightly bent lets us move freely to deal with any unexpected situation.
