Correct answer
- BNo, porque no hay visibilidad.No, because there is no visibility.
Explanation
Overtaking behind a vehicle that is doing the same manoeuvre is prohibited when its size blocks the view of the road ahead (Article 87.1.a of the General Traffic Regulations (RGC)). The lorry hides oncoming traffic, so there is not enough visibility.
