Correct answer

  • BNo, porque obstaculiza a los vehículos que le siguen.No, because it is blocking the vehicles following it.
Explanation

When making a U-turn, we must choose a suitable place so that we block the road for as short a time as possible, without obstructing other road users. If staying on the carriageway blocks the vehicles behind, the driver must leave it on the right-hand side, if possible, until they can make the U-turn, and if that is not possible, they must not make the U-turn and must look for a suitable place further on.
