Correct answer
- CAumentar la precaución para reducir el riesgo de accidente.Take extra care to reduce the risk of an accident.
In poor visibility (fog, rain, dusk), drivers must take extreme care when they meet cyclists on the road. Because cyclists are vulnerable and less visible, it is essential to keep a safe distance, avoid sudden manoeuvres and reduce speed so that you can react to the unexpected. Using the horn can frighten them and cause accidents, while overtaking without enough lateral space is a serious risk.
