Correct answer
- BLa luz de corto alcance o de cruce.Dipped headlights.
A travesía is the stretch of road that goes through a town. According to Article 101 of the General Traffic Regulations, in a built-up area on an insufficiently lit road you use dipped headlights. Main beam is only for poorly lit roads outside built-up areas, and sidelights alone are not enough.
