Show answer

Correct answer

  • AQue está prohibido circular por el carril izquierdo.That driving in the left-hand lane is prohibited.
Explanation

Beacons are used to guide traffic and warn of hazards. Here, the traffic cones and the sign show that the carriageway is restricted because of roadworks, so driving in the left-hand lane is prohibited. The RGC states that delineating devices prohibit entry to the part of the road they mark off, which is essential for the safety of drivers and of the people working on the site.
