Question picture

Si entramos en un estrechamiento teniendo esta señal en nuestro sentido y no pudiéramos atravesarlo juntamente con los vehículos que se acercan en sentido contrario, ¿qué vehículo deberá retroceder?

If we enter a narrowing with this sign in our direction and cannot get through at the same time as the vehicles coming the other way, which vehicle must reverse?

  • AEl que ha recorrido menor distancia.The one that has travelled the shorter distance.
  • BEl más ligero.The lighter one.
  • CNosotros.We must.
Show answer

Correct answer

  • CNosotros.We must.
Explanation

If the narrowing had no signs, the vehicle that entered first would have right of way. But as we have the "priority for oncoming traffic" sign, we must reverse. The other vehicle will find on its side the "priority over oncoming traffic" sign, which gives it right of way.
