Show answer

Correct answer

  • BLa distancia de seguridad.The safe distance.
Explanation

If you are not going to overtake, it is enough to keep a safe distance that allows you to stop without hitting the vehicle in front. As there is more than one lane in the same direction, you do not need to leave space for others to overtake, and the 50 metres is only required of vehicles over 3,500 kg or over 10 metres long.
