Correct answer
- ASí, porque en la travesía se circula igual que en las vías urbanas.Yes, because in a travesía you drive the same way as on urban roads.
A travesía is the stretch of road that passes through a built-up area, and there the lanes are used as on urban roads: with two or more lanes in each direction, you may drive in whichever lane best suits your destination. To turn left, you must move into the left-hand lane of your direction in good time.
