Show answer
Correct answer
- CPor la izquierda.On the left.
If there is no usable pedestrian area, pedestrians must walk on the left-hand hard shoulder in their direction of travel or, if there is none, on the carriageway (Article 122.1 of the General Traffic Regulations (RGC)). That way they see approaching vehicles head-on; only in exceptional cases, for safety reasons, should they walk on the right.
