Correct answer
- Ano respetar la prioridad de paso de los peatones.not respecting pedestrians' right of way.
Not respecting pedestrians' right of way is one of the most dangerous offences for them (Article 65 of the General Traffic Regulations, as worded by Royal Decree 518/2026). When overtaking a pedestrian, the minimum side gap required by Article 85.4 is 1.5 metres, not 3. Driving during the day with dipped headlights is not an offence.
