Correct answer

  • CNo, porque hay una línea continua que nos prohíbe rebasarla.No, because there is a solid line that we must not cross.
Explanation

In the picture, the line separating the two directions of traffic is solid. According to the road-marking catalogue in Annex I of the RGC, no driver may cross it or drive to the left of it, so you cannot start overtaking even if nobody is coming the other way.
