Correct answer
- CNo se considera un adelantamiento y está permitido.It is not considered overtaking, and it is allowed.
When traffic is so heavy that it takes up the whole width of the carriageway and you can only drive at a speed that depends on the vehicles in front, the fact that one lane moves faster than another is not considered overtaking. Nor is it considered passing, as the vehicles being passed are not stationary.
