Show answer
Correct answer
- Bel vehículo que baja.the vehicle going downhill.
Explanation
Under Article 63 of the General Traffic Regulations, on a narrow, steep stretch of road the vehicle going uphill has priority, because moving off again uphill is more difficult and dangerous. Therefore, the vehicle going downhill gives way, unless the one going uphill has a passing place nearer to it.
