Correct answer

  • BCuando, desde el asiento del conductor y sin mover la cabeza, veamos una pequeña parte del lateral del vehículo y la mayor parte de la calzada.when, from the driver's seat and without moving your head, you see a small part of the side of the vehicle and most of the carriageway.
Explanation

The left exterior mirror must be adjusted so that the driver can see a little of the side of their own vehicle and as much of the carriageway as possible. This makes sure the driver has proper control of their surroundings and can judge the situation on the road correctly. The correct answer – from the driver's seat, without moving your head, you see a small part of the side of the vehicle and most of the carriageway – meets this rule, because it gives a proper, safe view without moving your head, which is essential to avoid distraction and keep your attention on the road.
