Correct answer
- CSí, para evitar un posible accidente.Yes, to avoid a possible accident.

Main beam may be used by day and by night as warning flashes, at very short intervals and always without dazzling anyone: to avoid a possible accident, when on an emergency call, on narrow roads with many bends and to warn that you are going to overtake.
